Yes, it’s the electronic music video you’ve been waiting for. Quotable: Don’t listen to your body ’cause it only tells you lies This could also be an IDM anthem. (Glitch remix, anyone?

Wearable Cameras: Visualist Tool, and Could Save You From Plane from Hell
The V.I.O. POV.1, a mobile, wearable “point of view” camera due later this summer, already looks terrific. It’s got a hands-free camera with wireless remote and on-the-spot editing capabilities. I can imagine it being a lot of fun not only for shooting point-of-view footage, but potentially live/club applications, as well. (CDMo will be watching for […]

Reed Ghazala, popularly accepted as the Father of Circuit Bending, writes us with his latest creation: Long coming, here’s a finalized version of my Magnetic Patch Bay on the Fractal Oscillator prototype that I published last spring/winter (2007). [It’s] a Yamaha PSS-6, circuit-bent, and with my magnetic patch bay added on the rear panel. The […]
Touch that Touches Back: Haptic Feedback Could Make Touch Interfaces Better
Making interfaces more transparent … literally, in this clever shot by Steve Roe. Touch and multi-touch interfaces are getting lots of attention, but they pose one major problem: there’s no tactile feedback. Those supposedly “primitive” buttons and knobs and such start to look a lot better when you realize your fingers are used to touching […]
Music Sales Widgets, Everywhere
Widgets are all the rage these days. The idea is, artists create a little miniature music player you can embed anywhere (MySpace, blogs, etc.) with their tracks. Fans buy music via the widget, and the artist gets a cut. Hometracked has an exceptional round-up of widgets with feature comparison. (It’s about time someone took the […]
