Although I hadn't searched for it, I figured people would be doing it. It's just pretty boring because you can't do that much. You corrupt a resource and you get glitchy visuals and such. You corrupt code and you're out. If you dig a little deeper and make targeted changes it isn't really corruption anymore. I don't think I really get the charm. Might have to do with overexposure through the broken GPU of my old PowerBook, and actually trying to play games with it?Peasanttron wrote:So, I've been familiar with circuit bending for a long time.

I don't know enough about electronics to bend them, but I once made an effects processor out of broken guitar pedals.Phytotron wrote:So, I've been familiar with circuit bending for a long time. (I betcha sinewav has, too. Lucifer?)

So is that just the hardware salvaged and put into 1 nice looking unit?

Ah, see, because of that and other comments you've made (like modding geetars), I had got the impression you were a bit of an electronics tinkerer.sinewav wrote:I don't know enough about electronics to bend them, but I once made an effects processor out of broken guitar pedals.Phytotron wrote:So, I've been familiar with circuit bending for a long time.

Yes, but it has kind of a unique sound because not all the original parts work or work correctly.Bytes wrote:So is that just the hardware salvaged and put into 1 nice looking unit?

Harold Ramis - Stripes - Basic English
The whole first act of this film, before they got to boot camp, was filmed here in Louisville. The scene where Murray is driving the taxi across the bridge actually shows him leaving the city as he crosses over into southern Indiana. There's no airport there.

Last semester (it just ended) I had a professor who looked and talked just like that (the hair, the clothes, the voice, everything).

The Unloved: Tron Legacy

(I feel like lots of "easter eggs" and references to other movies alone don't make a good movie, and that no moviegoer would think the 'philosophy' that is explained here is very deep and was as important to the film as this essay suggests though...)
