old socks and new toys: 5/27/07 - 6/3/07

http://oldsocksandnewtoys.blogspot.com/2007_05_27_archive.html

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Sometimes things just go bad one after another. Usually it happens when you are tired and repairing something with stiff wiring. I opened up the unit, braced the range knob and successfully removed the old knob, replacing it with the new one. Mission accomplished. But wait, just what I feared, two wires had come loose. Should anyone know the fuse type, have a detailed photo of the board with the transformer or happen ...

http://oldsocksandnewtoys.blogspot.com/2012/10/change-is-sometimes-good.html

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Saturday, October 20, 2012. Change is sometimes good. I don't know whether I will make some minor changes to the other all blog in terms of links or old content or i'll just move forward. Actually, it's entirely possible I will post this and then disappear for another year or so. Stay with me if you will, perhaps I will put on a decent show. Tommy Dog, NYC.

old socks and new toys: 6/3/07 - 6/10/07

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Thursday, June 7, 2007. It's been a fairly long time since I started using digital media in my day to day life. SD II files on the Macintosh. Amazingly I had no problems with digital tape, few issues with audio files on the computer. A few weeks ago while my wife was out of town I decided to toss in a DVD-R. When I popped the disk in the computer spat it out. I tried again. Spfitttttttt. All good media, slow burns, verified and played back.

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Sunday, August 22, 2010. If you don't know what project I've been obsessively working on the last few months this video isn't for you.

old socks and new toys: nitty gritty

http://oldsocksandnewtoys.blogspot.com/2010/08/nitty-gritty.html

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Tuesday, August 31, 2010. Before I get accused of calling a single solenoid being held by a puppet a robot, let me fill you in on some of the details of how this little guy is actually set up in real life. The controller board from Highly Liquid. Allows for MIDI input to trigger solenoids and motors. I am writing a number of apps in Max/MSP to allow for things like randomization of different parts of the playing within a clocked rhythm.

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Monday, May 26, 2014. This is a edit of live projection work I did using a couple of Optikinetics 250s, slides, video feedback.

old socks and new toys: Dear Apple...

http://oldsocksandnewtoys.blogspot.com/2014/08/dear-apple.html

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Friday, August 15, 2014. You and I have been together many years, I was there in the 1980's with the Apple II/e. I became a serious user with around 1990/91 with a Mac IIcx. I've stood by through the rough years of Gil Amelio. When it was just pro users and I happily went from my Quadra 650. To my beloved but difficult to open 8500. Came back at some point and drove the company into being a serious market competitor with the iMac. Decided t...

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Tuesday, August 31, 2010. His snare drum arrived today and I started fucking around with positions.

old socks and new toys: Th Joes Garage Sale

http://oldsocksandnewtoys.blogspot.com/2013/11/th-joes-garage-sale.html

Old socks and new toys. Sound priorities for unsound obsessives. Friday, November 8, 2013. Th Joes Garage Sale. OK, perfect moment for a dumb story. When Frank Zappa died his family sold at very low prices his tour gear, some may remember the Joes' Garage Sale. At the time I had more space and decided that despite my not really giving a shit about famous people's stuff I'd rifle through the list. I called the guy who was handling the sales, bought it and received a faxed receipt. I still keep that fax an...
