  • iPod Touch & TouchOSC Controlling a C64

    Little-scale writes:

    I made a quick video of using an iPod Touch and TouchOSC to control a Commodore 64 in real time.

    Using the default ‘Keys’ patch for TouchOSC, a number of parameters of the Commodore 64s sound chip, the SID, can be controlled:

    • Note on and off commands for two octaves’ worth of piano keys

    • Attack

    • Decay

    • Release

    • Filter frequency

    • Filter resonance

    • Enable / disable triangle waveform

    • Enable / disable sawtooth waveform

    • Enable / disable pulse waveform

    • Pulse wave duty cycle

  • Natty – The Greased Cartridge

    Jets Over Chandigarh by Natty

    In 1857 a rumor spread throughout the ranks of Indian soldiers that their British rulers had greased the ammunition for their Enfield Rifles with Pig and Cow fat. The cartridges had to be bitten open before being loaded. Hindu and Muslim soldiers were outraged and thus began a bloody rebellion with cities in flames and British colonials massacred in scores. After the rebellion was put down by the British, the Anglo officers had fun tying Indian soldiers to the front of cannons and lighting the fuse.
