‘Listen to Bitcoin’ generates soothing sounds for every Bitcoin transaction worldwide

Screenshot_on_2013-03-31_at_21

Bitcoin, the decentralized virtual currency now worth over $ 1 billion, was created to be as open and transparent as feasible. Unlike traditional currency, you can download every Bitcoin transaction that’s ever before taken place and, more interestingly, tap into those deals in near actual time. Using this freely offered data, College of California pupil Maximillian Laumeister produced “Pay attention to Bitcoin,” a website that produces soothing chimes for every transaction that happens on the Bitcoin network.

Microsoft’s claim of outselling the iPhone isn’t as impressive as it sounds

Lumia_900_large

When Microsoft’s Frank X Shaw announced on Tuesday that more Windows Phone handsets than iPhones were shipping in seven markets, the question on the minds of market watchers was, “OK, which seven?” The answer, courtesy of The New York Times Bits Blog, is Argentina, India, Poland, Russia, South Africa, and Ukraine — along with a smaller group of countries (including Croatia) that falls under the banner of “rest of central and eastern Europe.” The numbers come from market research firm IDC, a representative of which further deflated Shaw’s claims by pointing out that three of the markets (Ukraine, South Africa, and “rest of”) amounted to less than 100,000 units apiece in the fourth quarter of 2012.

The list isn’t exactly…

Sounds Quality: Spaghetti That Cooks In 8-Seconds

8-second-spaghetti.jpg

Allegedly 8 Second Spaghetti from Royal Chef can cook in boiling water in 8-seconds. How, I don’t know, presumably because it’s already been cooked (or made from 100% unnatural, cancer-causing ingredients) and you’re just heating it up. Kind of like how SpaghettiO’s are ready to go STRAIGHT FROM THE CAN. Just pop the top, stab a fork in there, and cross your fingers you get a mini-meatball. Speaking of — the last time I ate SpaghettiO’s one of the meatballs had something hard in it. I was going to spit it out to see what it was but I was afraid I might get grossed out and turned off to SpaghettiO’s and they’re really important to me so I just swallowed it. If I had to guess though I’d say it was a tooth.

Hit the jump for a video of an 8-second cooking in process.

MechBass robot nails bass guitar sounds with Arduino and a stone cold groove (video)

MechBass robot nails the bass guitar sound with Arduino and a stone cold groove video

End-of-year engineering school projects often pique our interest for their creativity. It’s not every day that they can carry a bassline, however. James McVay’s robot project for his honors year at the Victoria University of Wellington, the supremely well-named MechBass, wouldn’t have much trouble keeping up with a favorite band. It centers on a custom, Arduino-compatible board that controls the plucking, fretting and damping of four strings to faithfully recreate bass guitar sounds from MIDI input. The design even accounts for the unwanted noises of actuators and motors, while virtually everything was either 3D-printed or laser-cut just for the task at hand. Sounds good? There’s more in the pipeline: an upcoming Swivel robot will experiment with different playing techniques, and McVay ultimately sees his work teaching us about robotic music’s interaction with human performers. For now, we’ll be happy with the video after the break and hope that MechBass takes requests.

Nightmare Fuel: Wasp Versus Spider (FAIR WARNING: Is Just As Terrifying As It Sounds, Probably Even More So)

wasp-vs-spider.jpg

This is a video of a red wasp and some sort of spider GOING AT IT in a battle to the death. Who wins? Definitely not anybody who watches the video, I can tell you that. The wasp — the wasp wins. It runs circles around the spider stabbing it in the head until it is DEAD. Bonus zombie leg twitch at 1:18. I’m never going outside again. Well, not after one final trip to the liquor store doused in Raid. “That’s lighter fluid.” *wink* I want off this planet.

Hit the jump for the video.

Snake Charmer: control ‘Snake’ with the sweet sounds of a recorder

Snake controlled by recorders

The recorder tends to get a bad rap among musicians. Often dismissed as a kiddie instrument, the inexpensive woodwind is commonly linked to memories of elementary music courses and untrained squeaks and toots. One thing we don’t associate with the recorder? Video games. Several young researchers from the Kitchen Budapest media lab dared to approach things from a new angle, however, and in doing so have converted the instrument into a pitch-sensitive controller for the beloved classic Snake.

Shifting control of in-game movements to a recorder required the group to hack a Nokia 6110i. Add some 5V relays, soldering, an Arduino, and Max / MSP programming to the mix and before long the snake’s path was being determined by each note played…

BMW i8 Concept Spyder takes to the road, sounds almost as gorgeous as it looks (video)

It’s been less than a year since our first opportunity to get up close and personal with BMW’s i8 plug-in electric car, and now the German automaker is back to tease a whole new beast. The Concept Spyder made a static appearance over the weekend, but today the sportier i8 has returned to the spotlight, with video footage in tow. BimmerPost managed to share some clips via YouTube, including a straight-cut-gear-fueled drive around a parking lot and across a lamp-lit bridge, somewhere in the Eastern U.S., believe it or not (take note of the I-95 sign in the first few seconds). You can also gawk at some side-to-side pans of the Spyder’s exterior, with a few HD interior close-ups to boot. And where can you find said stimulating simulations? Buckle up and click past the break.
