Eyegasm

Eyegasm from Glenn Marshall on Vimeo.
[Not a synth, but something to play your synth recordings with]

"Demo video of my new app for the iPad.

This is a direct video output from the iPad's HD screen which generates the animation in realtime at 1024x768.

It's based on my previous animations and 'Zio' - my iPhone app. It's created by complex algorithms and random generation, so you never get the exact same animation everytime you run it.

Music is Brian Eno.

Here's the iTunes link [LINK]

YouTube via x9spaceman — January 19, 2008 — "Yes, I have too much time on my hands.
Don't ask why I built this, I really don't know.

I got this box at a yard sale for 5 bucks, and stuck all this stuff & parts all over it.

6 Guitar strings, a bass string, a ship whistle, a jaw harp, 2 Morse code tappers, and a big knob & phone rotary that do nothing."

MARDIS ORAC speech synth / communication aid

via this auction

"This is for a MARDIS ORAC speech synth / communications aid. I think it was designed as a tool for disabled people to communicate by pressing buttons in a stephen hawkins kind of manner, and i do know that these things are obscenely expensive to buy, but i have no idea if this one is working properly or even at all. This could possibly be down to the fact that i have no idea how it should operate but all i know is that you plug in an external 9v power supply, one of the keyboard LED's lights up and some blocks appear on the screen. Other than that its a mystery to me, maybe you need some kind of overlay in the front before it'll do anything, or possibly you need to charge an internal bettery.

Theres a lot more information on this thing at the Mardis website here http://www.lancs.ac.uk/depts/mardis/products/orac.html"
