'''Introduction of main interests:'''
: interested in the meaning of using obsolete tech today: revisiting and explore it's potential instead of discarding it
: 'Zombie media'
: main interest in low-tech: reveal inner workings (transparency)
: implement it in today's workflow (audio/visual, programming, etc)
: Side interest: lo-fi music production and post-digital publishing
: Interested in working with limitations.
: creating workflows that reflect on what we use today
'''What I did for fun (not so deep):'''
: came across an DIY open-source project
: creates old calculators into a 1-bit music composing tool (instrument)
: uses the binairy output of TI-calculator to produce 1-bit sound
: 1-bit sound: on/off (real basics of electronics)
: Program is still not being used so much
: Bought the nessesary stuff to get it running. (very flimsy, hard to install but it worked)
: uses an audio input to load software (written in BASIC, same as C64)
: Demo: Wanna hear a 1-bit chord?
'''So, that worked. Let's speculate about the publishing / sharing possibilities:'''
To spread this project, make a publication/release/demo.
Not only for the music as an artist but also to spread the word about this project:
: I would write a 4 track album for it and release it on a TI-83.
: People that buy it would recieve a TI with the tracks on it (collected from thrift store / Marktplaats)
: mail it to people
If interest arise:
- hands-on hardware to get started.
- See how tracks were produced might get people started
- enlarge interest & community?
So this way, they can not only listen but also engage and possibly working with it.
