Well this isn't something that i read this week or anything, but it is definitely audio related.

with the building of my mini-synth, i decided to take up circuit bending as another hobby (like i don't already have enough). A few trips to various GoodWill locations around Austin and I had a few electronic devices to play around with. I found a Elmo and Cookie Monster toy that made a bunch of weird sounds. I took that one apart and messed with the circuit a bit and came up with some strange sounds.

Here is a sound clip i recorded of some of the sounds i made with it:

I found some interesting sounds in several other circuits as well. Eventually they could all be combined and mixed together to make some music.
