Released back in July, I managed to get my ass onto the Chiptunes=Win Vol 4 compilation. It’s a fun track. I had fun writing, recording and producing it. DJ Cutman did a good job mastering all the tracks. Here it is below: <a href=”http://chiptuneswin.bandcamp.com/album/chiptunes-win-volume-4″>Chiptunes = WIN: Volume 4 by b-knox</a> And here is a great […]

Published last November, ’10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10′ (yes, that is the entire official title) is an interesting traipse through all things related to running this one line program on a Commodore 64. Watch what it does when you RUN it — Somewhere in the mid 80’s, I discovered those two slash characters could […]

I was kind of a spoiled kid (or there were great garage sales in my neighborhoods) because I had Commodores […]
Stravinsky loses Public Domain status
Monday, January 30th, 2012 by b-knox
When I was a teenager I watched Disney’s Fantasia countless times, Rite and Bald Mountain were my favorite sequences by far. Over a week ago I had an epiphany — I’ve been brewing and incubating my next film project for quite a while, and Igor Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring came to me as a sudden […]
