Man, the PPG Wave sounds stunning.

[RetroElectroville]

Very complex sound with the PPG, beautiful.

@alexriesenbeck but your composition is very beautiful and unique, well done!

@kallabos I prefer the original strange Triple-I music during the Adam Powers section. The original framerate would make this look a lot better.... ;)

[Snurremegrundt]

Really relaxing music. By the way, has anyone seen Vol Libre from 1980?

[kallabos]

He is actually juggling the Triple-I logo. It's a pice called Adam Powers. Triple-I used a Perkin-Elmer 1620 to do most of their eirlier animation work.

the original sound was so creepy thanks for changing it :D!

At the beginning it looks like the man is juggling the Symbolics logo, but I'm pretty sure they didn't start making Lisp machines until 1985. I wonder what kind of system it was rendered on :/

Fantastic music for these graphics.

You have touched my heart. To imagine how youngsters back in the day must have felt when they saw these technological and artistic possibilites...sitting there, feeling alone, trapped by the limits of the technology of the day, yet letting themselves dream. I long for my childhood when old video graphics let my imagination run free...**sigh**. This music captures that longing, that nostalgia PERFECTLY. I would buy it!

Haunting synth. Its a slow cloudy day here and this is really messing with my head. eh-ah.

Please clarify what you have the copyright on: the music or the animation or both?

I remember this animation video set to earlier more primittive MIDI sequencer audio. I believe it's (the video) actually

"owned" by someone else! Like Sun Microsystems. Interested to figure this one out . . .
