Tentacle-box, mobile musicstation with beatsynched lights.

Since I don’t get enough gigs, or any at all, I though I’d make a sound-system so I could go wherever and play a little show. So I decided to build a sound system that was moderately movable and would work of the grid. Features: So a featureset that I though was the least I [...]

Binaural beats and Atari Punk Console followup

Long-time reader of this blog may remember me having an idea of creating a binaural beat generator based on 2 APC. real all about it here http://www.larsby.com/johan/?p=67. Well so, I made it. I was going to make a few APC’s anyway so I might as well test the idea.  I used http://www.electro-music.com/forum/phpbb-files/thumbs/t_apc555_129.gif so I could [...]

Is it broken?

While I was documenting that sticker I’m making for the macbook I’ve ordered I accidentally dropped my camera 10cm. It landed on the lens. The lens got pushed in and looked totally broken. While trying to fix it it suddenly looked like this: I managed to get it together again, and it’s working. I’m able [...]

Another crochet pouch

I’m having some kind of flu, makes my bodily functions work in mysterious ways. Still you would think that since I’m feeling sick all the time I would loose some wight (geekbeach ftw!) but sadly no. I hardly move. To get my mind of off feeling sick I’ve crocheted some more things. Some of them [...]

The Android market-schmarket

This is going to be a rant about stuff that I don’t like with the Android market.  Dont read it if you are a fan boy. I have a google g1 phone from htc. I have had it now for a year or so. At first it was ok, then the small annoyances became really [...]

Geekbeach, what is it and how do I make one?

It’s a competition me and a few friends/colleagues have been working on to loose weight. You see, we are all in the IT business and consequently we are pale, slightly overweight men. We all have previously made halfheartedly attempts at losing weight on our own. Since that did not work we decided to make things [...]

Crochet

In Sweden we have “slöjd” in school. That is both woodworks/metalworks and also stuff with textiles. The reasoning is that every one when finished shall be able to do some basic woodwork and sew back a loose button. I was more interested in the usage of powertools and saw’s but we were all forced to [...]

Music I did ages ago: The Ost

About fourhundred years ago, when I was still living in Lund with a girlfriend instead of a wife. I used a music program called Buzz. I made loads and loads and loads of songs in it. Everything really was in my fingers in that program. It’s a long time abandoned from me though. I thought [...]

A gift for my sister

GRATTIS LOTTA! One of my kid sisters has her birthday-party today, and I wanted her to have a blast of nostalgia. When we where kids parties used to have at least one of these cactus of candy. So me and the kids made one for her. Ingredients: A pot, a cucumber, wasabi nuts, toothpicks (wooden), [...]

Friday night, glitchnoisefight

I’m sitting here, home with the kids sleeping. After riding my exercise bike for a while I decided I should make some sort of song. A little laid back glitch thingy I though. but it became a little more noisy then I though it would. And not very melodic. I’m off to bed soon, and [...]
