10 x bleep Boxes = 30 x DIY Oscillators

I've finished building 10 x Bleep Boxes in VHS cassette tape boxes.

As you can see from the photo, each synth uses two boxes.

Opening one lets you access the controls, opening the other lets you access the battery and circuit.

The following combinations of horror titles were used:

Deranged + Braindead
Night of the Living Dead + City of the Living Dead
The Brood + The Fly
Night of the Living Dead + Day of the Dead
The Evil Dead + Evil Dead II
Demons + Demons 2
Day of the Dead + Dawn of the Dead
Scanners + Shivers
Zombie Creeping Flesh + Zombie Flesh Eaters
The Last House on the Left + The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

4 x bleep boxes = 12 DIY oscillators droning


10 x bleep boxes = 30 DIY oscillators droning

Distroboto + BBQ VoL. 2

Distroboto

Old cigarette vending machines which now sell art; three inch DCs and DVDs, buttons, cassette tapes, books, zines, comix. I found these machines at Casa Del Popolo and La Salla Rosa whilst enjoying the Suoni Pel Il Popolo festival.

Some products are dispensed without packaging (cassettes), others (discs etc) in remixed cigarette packaging, or in little parcels made of blocks of corrugated plastic (maybe cut from old election adverts) wrapped in puppy-print cellophane - the machines have boxes on top for you to leave the packaging to be recycled, or submit your own piece of art for consideration.

I bought numerous pretty little things from these machines, both for myself and as little gifts. Here is one I'm sharing with you, a mix tape fit for Summer.
