Barcodas page now up

This will be of limited interest but I thought I’d post it anyway as its of interest to me. You can find my page of barcodes that play a nice little tune in Barcodas (an iOS app that plays barcodes), can be found here.

I’ll be adding to it over time, so if you are interested you’ll see more of them there, although I probably won’t post about adding new ones.

Loving Barcodas and finding out about bar codes

I do like the idea of made from things that don’t normally make music. Hence I like barcodas. The idea of making little snippets of music from bar codes is very appealing. To me anyway. The interesting thing, at least, interesting to me anyway is that different types of bar codes seem to have very different properties. So for instance, using bar codes taken from books, these all sound the same, at least the first few notes do. Bar codes taken from cereal boxes are quite different.

So I had a little idea for a barcodas project that I think I’m going to try out soon.
