I saw this and knew that if I bought it there might be trouble

It’s just one of those subjects that’s been there in the back of my mind for a long time, and when I saw that SOS had a feature on modulars I knew I had to get a copy and see what they had to say.

After a quick glance it looks like it’s a good thorough piece, which is probably a bad thing in many ways as it’ll mean I more likely to get hooked.

Oh dear …

I couldn’t resist getting a Laurie Spiegel t-shirt after discovering her music and work recently. So here they are, both together.

By the way, Lauris Spiegel’s album “The Expanding Universe” is excellent and well worth a listen.

The next elements: Infrared Distance Sensor

Posted by on in Music, Tech

infrared element
I’ve posted about the molecule synth ‘table of elements‘ before. It’s such a great idea with some great molecules / elements to come. But I thought I’d dwell on a few of them just to mention the ones I really am excited about.

I’m not quite sure what the infrared distance sensor will actually do, but I can tell you what I’d like it to do at some point in the future, or indeed when it first arrives.

I’d love to be able to use the infrared to receive an infrared signal from a Nebulophone, or even a Palm OS PDA. The output could be as an LFO or other controller.

I hope it’ll be the first or one of the first to be launched.
