Circuit bent mechanical Furby sequencer linked to Korg SQ-10

[Furbotz]

This is the shit!

I can't hope to make something as awesome but I will think of this masterpiece when I mod my little robotic daemons!

[lemonrind]

I'm afraid you've gone mad.

[BelfonteFurnace]

It's like a cage of torture. In a fun sort of way...

[poopskinTheLiar]

This is somehow both adorable and nightmarish.

[mutantmoments]

Thats just mad mad fun.....

[gripcord]

:s



[monotonmusic]

Awesome! Like the idea to manually crank-operate the sequencer.

Korg MS/SQ goes Barrel Organ :D

[774434]

thats the cutest sequencer ive ever seeeeeeen

[Karagianis]

1:38 - 1:57 sounds like an early 1960s computer trying to calculate Pi! LOL

[HazardOfExistance]

Thats kinda creepy

[lokirat]

:D hehe

[BitSnapper]

Thank you so much, that makes my day. This is great art!!!!

[lavishmcronald]

This probably the best thing I have ever seen

[electronic4evr]

are these 4 sale?

[Furbyfan100]

How do you get one

[blarz83]

awesome !!!! 

[imstm]

this is good.. see what happens when you experiment with synths and technology.. those behind techno and the pioneers and guys like this are geniuses..

[garyshinndesign]

I just bought a furby yesterday and brought it home to tear a part..never heard of anyone doing it.. but mine ended up looking just like yours but i cut off the creepy eyelashes. Found it at the thriftstore for three dollars.... so weird and fun

[Biyoung]

put an motor on that whit a midi synched tempo device

[AMOKIAN]

How have you been?I haven't heard from you in LOOOONG time.

Hope all is well.

Amokian

[td6d]

Holy shit, this is awesome! :D

[MbKat859]

@thegreenfurby1;; You saying you think furbies suck, and you have the word 'furby' in your username?

[ArcaneInquisitor]

I don't quite understand, what are the furbies there for? Just for fun.

[thenervoussquirrel]

They have been modified to produce sounds as you turn the handle.

[IAmFurby090]

People killing these little furbys just to circuit bend them are examples of sad, lifleless little worms. Dont ask, just go O_o

[thenervoussquirrel]

Thank you, thank you.

[coprographia]

@thegreenfurby1 creative people make me mad, too. they should watch more television and complain a lot.

[lusefer]

@thegreenfurby1

says the guy whos 93 videos consist of nothing but furbys and those retarded robot things...

[thegreenfurby1]

I think furbys suck.

[BaconBricks]

If you don't like it, then don't watch it!! It's so simple. Enjoy your annoying toys that were hated by half the world even when they were actually popular.

[BaconBricks]

Hahahaha. Really now. You're such a mature kid. How old are you? 9? 10?

[thegreenfurby1]

Who ever made this REALLY needs to get a life!

[Bildheinzer]

Amazing work!

[CrazyGirlTV]

i want one!!!

[spectralmusic]

It strikes me that the main 'problem' with MIDI is that it is too precise, and less likely to exhibit these strange behavours. Someone needs to create a Brownian motion machine for digital gear! :-)

[thenervoussquirrel]

I like that idea! Perhaps a box with MIDI in/out containing a radioactive source that randomly alters different parameters, detuning occasional notes and 'unquantizing' precise timing!

[BrianWilliamGreen]

you could send generative midi in that would be cool.

[gordongate]

@thenervoussquirrel how about just using sample and hold to trigger midi parameter events,

Be easy to knock something up using Max.

[proveyouwrong02]

@thenervoussquirrel get to know open sound control man

[proveyouwrong02]

@thenervoussquirrel you can do this very easily with Pure Data

[wullter]

Awesome!

[Jrezky]

so uhh... where can I buy one!!

[oticram]

Art

[maninshack]

reminds me of willy wonka and the chocolate factory, when they go into the everlasting gobstopper room.

[lesscunning]

pretty awesome...

[kipptumor]

You're shitt'in me! This is the coolest F'n thing I have seen next to that Spectralis sequencer in six months!!!

[melitoce]

The best barrel organ I've ever seen !

[matt9741399]

I hate that dooo noise Furbys make, makes me want to kill them!.. Great project though.

[michael1166]

So Chris Franke got a new job after all? ;-)

(cute video, very much enjoyed it!)

[oakland2949]

I appreciate the time and workmanship that went into this project.

[alexdatsko]

wow love it, feel the glitch

[neandrewthal]

You win. Hands down.

[ArlenAwesome]

This must be how furbies are cloned.

[earsaucemusic]

that's weird.

es.

[grapesoda4me420]

hoooly lol!!~

i want one.

[3ternityxX]

cooool?

[bowentng]

it is so cute

[LizLovely217]

Hilariously random and very creepy.

[jomatt]

This could be the single best furby circuit bender hack evar! sick...

[deadvideokid]

sick mod.

[illustriouschin]

it doesnt matter what they use, circuit bending always sounds like random noise, if you got all those thousands of dollars worth of equipment you can at least do something better than a four year old might do be accident.

[Zorqueozwald]

I dunno, I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that sound is the point.

[DaftJarre]

Kraftwerk Request!

[carpeteria]

that's absolutely genius. amazing work!

[midistickist]

This is the greatest bend I have ever seen!

Very nice work. I love to pass my bendys into korg ms-10 and old synthis, super cool!

Cheers

[stretta]

I've often wanted a hand-cranked source of control voltage.

[GBart]

What the shit is going on??

[kotep777]

hell on earth

and i love it

[Quadraphonicsoul]

Your craftsmanship is amazing. I love your designs.

[kapsico]
