Oscillofun

I took the original audio file and put the signal from the left and right channels into an oscilloscope. The movement in the video is kind of choppy because of the limited frame rate of the camera. I would have taped this video with the lights off but it would have caused the frame rate to be even lower. I synchronized the audio with the video so if you wanted, you could reproduce these images on an oscilloscope.
I used my JDR 3500 35MHz oscilloscope with each channel set to .1V/div.

This seems impossible- how on earth did you manage to make audio that would draw like this on an oscilloscope and still make it sound good? just a lot of tinkering? anyway, this literally inspires awe in me, so I would actually be telling the truth were I to call this 'awesome'.

and "Atom Delta"?

@Nanopaulg, I used the audio from the original audio file used to make the original video. You can take the audio of this video and feed it into an o-scope and get the same thing even though it's not as high quality due to compression. I'm not sure what ATOM DELTA is. XD

@Myke1576 atom delta is what the letters are showing in thid video

[Myke1576]

@FoxCat5531 Yes.

Wow, that looks really nice. Thanks for taking the time to record it! Some lowpass filter seems to make some parts a bit fuzzy, but it's still really cool too see it the way it was meant to be seen!

@finalman242 I'll see if I can get a higher quality camera to retake this video.

I didn't know you could do such a thing with oscilloscopes until today :O

@Myke1576 Atom delta is the name of who made the song I believe

[TheKayvaughn]

@Myke1576 Atom Delta is the electronica musician group that you took the audio file from.

[Jtincan]

@Myke1576 Atom Delta is a collective of electro musicians, as the author stated on the original video

[Dagg215]

@Myke1576 AtomDelta, it's an old '80s band. :p

This video had around 305 views before Notch tweeted that other video.

@Myke1576 Atom Delta is the name of the group that made this song. They have a channel, AtomDeltaTv I do believe.

[t1mt1im]

@Myke1576 Atom Delta is the artist who made this song, I think.

Holy crap. I didn't know you could do this on an oscilloscope... That's kind of awesome, you know.
