Circuit Bent Nintendo Power Glove

[pighelipoop]

so thats how they make dubstep

[demokilla1]

what you doing trying to contact your home planet

[Aardcore]

Oh my god, someone woke up a sleeping demon @ 1:07, that's awesome!

[beatloop383]

think what havin a wank with that badboy would be like!

[DeeJaysLiCKdts]

Live electronic music or cough Dubstep ... ideas man ...

[vassilios620]

who dosed darth vader?

[FoamKittyGamer]

SWEET! Finally, the best use for the Power Glove EVER! XD

[ericthetaylor]

fabulous work

[MadHatter3619]

Lame

[WTFIsThisKidDoingLOL]

Talking teacher sounded like excitebike

[OlSkoolGamer87]

You could use the power glove to move objects with your mind Nintendo was a bajillion years ahead of its time.

[MOON1388]

AIR GUITAR WILL NEVA BE THE SAME AGAIN !!!!1

[gartner10112]

what does it sound like when you spank it?

[mugenrider754]

TELEPORTING FAT GUY!

[XxDracconusxX]

Soldering wire: $5.00

Tools: $150.00

Electronics from the 80's on Ebay: ~$65.00 after shipping.

Desoldering braid: $5.00

Knowing you just invested WAY too much time, and money into the same thing I do in one program: Priceless.

There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, he wastes his check.

[Draknfyre]

@XxDracconusxX

Or, you know, he could have had literally all of that before, and didn't spend a dime.

People actually bought the Power Glove when it came out, you know. Not everyone has to buy it on eBay.

The only thing his description says is "parts on order", for future experiments.

[XxDracconusxX]

@Draknfyre And you're beginning to think you're a genius for figuring out the obvious WHY?!?

Don't try to school me, I know full well all about the ninteno as well as atari 2000 and several of the other "firsts."

[Draknfyre]

@XxDracconusxX

You apparantly think it's great pointing out how he "wasted" his money, when he might not have. And you are the one acting like a genuis with the "into the same thing I do in one program."

The goal of this isn't JUST to make warbly sounds. It's to make things do things they were never intended to do, like this. You are seeing the end-result as the only goal, and are missing the fact that the experimentation is just as important, if not more.

[blakemcguire]

Power glove + synthesizer = amazing.

[AJGee268]

creepy



[abbeyroad1980]

What an amazing creation you have there ! Configured into a Dj's hands, we would have a new breed of DJ'ed music , and you would be a god in Tampa ! =]

[TheTerrorbot]

This is fucking sick! gREAT idea!

[5ROKKIT]

Make the glove useful???? am I missing something here? I am yet to see any circuit bent devices that are actually useful for making music with. To me it is a pointless waste of time and money and is also destroying decent devices.

You guys should get out more cos you are just creating CRAP

[drbrontosaurus]

@5ROKKIT lol, because the speak and spell is such a useful device. circuit bending one will teach you alot more than its pathetic voice synth ever could. what are you so angry about anyway?

[circuitben]

@5ROKKIT We only do it to make you angry. You personally.

[Sonicguy1994]

Dial-Up + Vacuum Cleaner

[MegaLex32]

lol it's a gutar

[sitwosaints]

Just noticed you have perpetual motion saddos on, bye.hey guys, always remember it's a false vacuum, so if you used your card, you can get your energy back

[sitwosaints]

Dunno if you are still there, but listen to cabaret Voltaire, nag nag nag if you can to hear something familiar..good stuff, we used to mess with speak n spell in Leeds in 1981 but never thought to break circuitry...silly us

[xxmarka]

wow, that sounds incredible

[Zambaku]

Now your playing with power!

[meleniumshane90]

Sounds like a vacuum cleaner on dialup

[mastax1234]

reminds me of a theremin

[TehLulShow]

THERAMIN

[jupitor919]

I expected so much more. If I bent that thing you would ((((KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!))) and monkeys would fly out of your eyesockets... keep trying though.

[nooloo3000]

never mind i didnt watch the full video

[nooloo3000]

whats the point of circuit bending someone tell me please

[drakon32]

COOL

[sbilts]

This could add a whole new dimension to having "one off the wrist"

[ztjordan]

The phrase "like a minimalist cyborg Clara Rockmore" comes to mind.

[DarkZekeX]

minimal being the key word, and please don't compare Clara Rockmore to this.

[hannibiscannibis]

that thing looks like hours of amusement

:B

[lingerlightly]

I knew those gloves were good for something.

[royACUP]

thats a fucking rad idea.

love it.

[TheThievingBeggars]

That's pretty fucking cool!

[sentientmachine11]

I love the powerglove... it's so bad.

[hardt]

Nice reference ;)

[robinheil]

yes!!

[samuelmichaud]

Use this to control a synth that you imbed in a real guitar

[trycatchscenario]

Bunechunk who are you talking to?

[arakno1]

well,this is a crazy fucking bent shit!

[rickster480]

the "talking teacher" kinda sound like a car motor

[vork666]

Someway it just feels right that when you close your hand, the pitch changes. Kick ass!

[LivingfortheFather]

Have you worked any more on this?

[trycatchscenario]

That was cool. One thing I don't get is all these people making crazy music instruments that don't sound like anything or high pitched and annoying.

[LivingfortheFather]

Ha... I haven't made one yet... but I think I can understand.. some people just like noise... I happen to be one of them. ha. Also, sound designers can use sounds like this for movies and whatnot... :)

[trycatchscenario]

I guess what I am try to say is somehow wire this to a keyboard, laptop, or something where this can be made to trigger midi in a new way. It just doesn't sound good to the human ear. Just my 2 cents.

[LivingfortheFather]

ahh.. yes..okay. cool.

[GravyLazer]

These noises are often sampled in songs. You might never hear a whole two minutes of a bent speak and spell saying kangaroo three octaves higher than normal, but if a cool distorted beat comes out of one, it might be looped.

[GravyLazer]

I understand what you're saying. Not necessarily on here, but there have definitely been songs using circuit bent noises. Plus, it's just fun to make noise sometimes. It doesn't always have to be pretty or linear.

[Bunechunk]

Shut the fuck up you close minded oaf.

[aghily]

Nice job. Are you familiar with the Thimbletron?

[VenusHeadTrap]

now you're literally, playing with power

[kevskove]

this is a sick concept for CB man

[Thecasiomicron]

This is the dorkiest thing I think I've ever seen and I mean that with the greatest level of respect. I applaud you, seriously :)

[bubbyparker]

your retro awesomeness quotient is 11

[soymeno]

ɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥɥs

[AlphaDweebPivot]

me:hmmm what if u maturbated with that thing!...

Other person: i'll get the lube!

[onlynicc16]

Imagain using the power glove as a midi controller, what would be amazing for doing live music..

[Squelchbox]

I'm working on doing that right now. Early experiments are promising. I'll post a vid, keep an eye out.

[onlynicc16]

Yhea man ! keep up the good work :D

[ORUPRANKSTAZ]

@Squelchbox

Me too. :) I even have the sensor array that you would set up around your TV.

[bryandean]

@onlynicc16 For a midi controller I used the flex sensors already in the glove then just soldered their + & - ends to longer wires and the to a miditron board. search the video: "Power Glove Rewired For Beats"

[Jeffy2763]

fuck guitar hero. its for posers. I play an actual bass guitar

[mynameisray]

Air guitar doesn't count son..

[ReapearingDoubleChin]

well i play gta but i don't actually murder hookers with a baseball bat.

[onlynicc16]

I do YHEA :D lol

[jimbugismyname]

somebody should perfect this and make it into like a guitar hero sort of thing.

[xOnyxTheHedgehogx]

Now all we have to do is look good to make music.

[grooveclubhouse]

good way to Take a totally useless NES controller and make it useful.

powerglove quote: "its so bad."

anyone...anyone?

[BeaujeanB]

I love the power glove, it's so bad.

[wushUdoin]

lol both of you.. ftw

[LegoGlitch]

the wizard. right?

[grooveclubhouse]

ding ding ding! Tell this man what he won!

a thumbs up!

[snower5554]

@grooveclubhouse The wizard... lol

[cutfromthemold]

@grooveclubhouse YT!!!!

[TylerMcallister93]

@grooveclubhouse AVGN

[yako0000]

@grooveclubhouse the wizard. classic

[Snoogans775]

the sounds are pretty expressive, I think oscillators would be far more boring.

it would be nice if you could get the precision up to a theremin like tolerance.

[JarvidO]

Why not just hook that up to a few oscillators?

[litleangus77]

yes like a theremin right???

[menoel21]

so true so true as long as some sort of cactus is in the mix or maybe a phsycoloboin

or two

[menoel21]

as long as the drugs get trippier

hell yeah

[BobTheYak]

Don't have to, we just need to take more, and mix and match.

[ICHIBANKILLA]

The future of rave.

[MakubekuUrashima]

its true, it could make a great device

[andykins118118]

it reminds me of a lawnmower when you move the rabbit-turtle lever

[VJFranzK]

very cool... now youre playing with power!

[Lucidghost]

That's really cool. Nice idea, it's about the only use the power glove is good for hah. Great noise!

[typeitasoneword]

the sound reminds me of excite bike.

[badassbuddy4u]

lol..yeah,it just needs to make that noise for when the bike over heats

[andrewtheone7]

that power glove would be awesome on metroid with 3d glasses

[jongeo]

I bet he whacks it constantly!

[luigi2999]

kinda reinds e of a theramin.

[tehfiercedeity666]

That could make a great synth

[H3nryHomesweet]

Incredible! A superb bend good sir!

[RUTGERMORTENSEN]

WHY??????????????????

[aidschans]

im getting so tired of people saying glitch videos are pointless or stupid. this is art, music, and science all rolled together. if you dont like glitch video, go back to searching for vieos of drunk jocks hitting each other or whatever hollywood scandal you happen to be following.

[gofyster2]

well really piont less but whatever

[alex24356]

I love the Power Glove, its so bad.

[brianfitzrock]

Really clever, man. Harsh on the ears, as typical, but still pretty damn cool.

[boogie504]

he jerks off with that, makes "music" with his cheap date

[DanceDanceRobot]

great job now circuit bend a girlfriend

[Leroy568]

You're a fucking tool.

[Harbringerb]

congradulations, you made something useless

[spillz09]

cool!

[Budster650]

Ow, my ears. Nice job anyways.

[PHAEDRIDER]

thats great!

[fatnazicowdicktater]

if you could program "play" invisble guitar so to speak. this has potential hopefully you keep working at it

[hem592]

The Talkin teacher sounds like a car

[Jeesustelija]

Umm.. What the fuck was that?

[successiveaspect]

I've got a headache

[ccaattmaannddoo]

dude...if you set it to piano thingy...you could practice piano in the air....

[LeBelgeElectrod]

the power glove is just an Interesting visual:\ Just good to catch cramps

[ness550]

lol turn the talking teacher or speak and spell into a theremin :D

[msc81]

You should look up those guys that do underground techno (Noiz) with GameBoy mods. Keep working at it. You may actually find a use for the Power Glove. It certainly didn't work as a game controller!

[steelbath66]

Oooh wow! you can change the pitch of garbled white noise

gimme a break

[drewswift]

HOW MUCH!!!

[JoelLara]

Powerglove is not only a Nintendo product a pretty awesome frickin band.  just look them up in myspace.

[dkrikori]

duke nukem and excite bike?

[jasonreiner]

oh man i thoughta doin' this! but skills just aren't there :-/ good work man! i love it!

[homebrewalright]

looks demonic

[slackdave]

Tweak&Hell

[petrokemikal]

give it up

[DarkRave24]

The talking teacher sounds like a car that's about to blow. Cool.

[WolfKazumaru]

I LOVE THE POWER GLOVE.

IT'S SO BAD.

[Shaon299292]

YES.

[dogsbowser]

Yeah, well, just keep your Power Gloves off her, pal, huh? :)

[PragmaticEncephalon]

Nice vid. Electric music is here to stay. If u like glitch and experimental electronic music and film, check out my vids and tell me what u think, all help is appreciated.

[afa78djd]

Dude, what noise would it of made if you just lift up the middle finger? lol....!!!

[DrRek]

nice, a power glove that doesnt suck!

[eric1love]

Blargle

[corey126541]

its exitebike!

[dahgrow]

I love that use of glove.

[hollowmenrule]

excite bike LOL that's it on the head

[fearthedreadlox]

oh you are my fucking hereoadoifadofuaooooofucasdfas­df

[LoSeRLuCk1]

wow u came close to my name (lucas)

[fearthedreadlox]

ha i did kinda.

[Sardone777]

Probably the best use of a power glove now (or ever, for that matter).

[MMRINC]

THEKODESECRET DOT COM

[cizxxnaz119933]

i got a headache now :(

[iroc464]

are the motion sensore hooked up to that thing or is it just serving as an antenna that your moving around?

[Squelchbox]

This glove came without the sensor bars so all I explored were the "bend sensors" in the fingers. The thumb is controlling the Speak and spell pitch and the index finger is controlling the talking teacher pitch(if I remember right).

[syncy2]

AWESOME

[kidonthe300ex]

WTF!!!

[luislozanokorn]

that noise in 1.25 reminds me of a game from first Nintendo...motorcicle one! hohoh

[stormpursuit]

HAHA!! It does! Like Excite Bike!

[luislozanokorn]

exactly hahahaha :p .... ohhhhh those days where good...2 bottoms and 2 ways 2 go(back or foward)... easier... :p

[fraglessone]

very nice, hook it to a wah wah pedal!

[osciller]

what the hell just happened?

[k0ng0fw0rld]

the end of the nintendos as we know it

[therandumb]

try masturbating and see how it sounds

[whazah7]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH!

[lordkirb]

I Want a power gloves but not one that is fuckt up

[Th3ba1r0n]

now he needs to circuit bend one of those robo-pal things from nintendo:3

HAY can you make circuit bended techno:#???? I would so worship you if you did:3

[jasonacevedo00]

man i bet this dude is rrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeallllll!!!! HIGH!!

[thrasha889]

how can u get 1 of those? i want 1!

[w33dbluntz]

the end musica was fuckin awsome and trippi

[netpigjunk]

really cool, but i smell carpal tunnel.

[Seven0fNine]

hey did you provide the sound fx to Nascar racing??....

[deng]

kewl
