Greetings!
I want to fool around with implimenting
some ideas regarding algorythmic music
composition and I thought that someone's
unused, dusty, abandoned (but working)
commodore 64 would be a good way to begin.
I would also consider mail-order if someone
could steer me towards a rock-bottom wholesale
outlet. (I am your typical penniless grad
student).
Art comes from simplifying a problem to its
essentials, right? And so it seems that
a machine as ancient (classic) as the c64
would be a great way to explore emusic on
a very fundamental level.
So any help that anyone out there is willing
to give, any information towards realizing
my goal, would be appreciated. If there is
anyone out there who is using the c64 for such
a purpose I would really like to talk with you.
