...includes not just frames, but frames and a flaming logo. I feel dirty.
I am, however, pleased that the document is in fact a how-to guide. That's infinitely more cool than the "golly, isn't my unusual art project just so special?" showcase kind of stuff that usually turns up around here. posted by majick at 3:14 PM on January 31, 2002
Great site, thanks skyline. The Seattle experimental improv collective SIL2K features some of this stuff, too. posted by Ty Webb at 3:16 PM on January 31, 2002
This is really cool, I've heard of some bands that only play modified toys. I saw one on Wild Chicago once, but I don't remember what they were called. posted by skallas at 4:29 PM on January 31, 2002
In my first band (in 1985), I played a modified Magical Musical Thing, it had a reverb attached and other mods, very cool. Since I had no musical training, I got to play this while my bandmates got the real instruments. I'm not the only one. posted by pekar wood at 8:18 PM on January 31, 2002
I have to say that they've WAY WAY overhyped what they were doing. Heck, someone might be tempted to pay $100 for a mod'ed speak-n-spell. However, it is still cool.
One of my favorite toys when I was young WAS a speak-n-spell. It was especially cool when the batteries were going low and it freaks out. Saying and doing all sorts of crazy things. That was fun. Really wished I could have created my own dictionary module back then. posted by jmccorm at 8:03 AM on February 1, 2002
