Here's a link to a short doco that some ECU film students did on me and my bending. It was filmed about 3 years ago now I think...or perhaps 2.

[Chad Burger]

^ awesome!!

[Chad Burger]

yeah, the students who made it did a great job I thought.

Lets face it . Working with crazy people for years makes you crazy, in sensibility at the least. It just does. Even if you can function and keep your faculties active.

This is great, inspiring, and one of the best ways i've ever seen someone channel that! Circuit bending looks like awesome fun and after this thread and the doco, i'm kind of an instant fan to follow what you're up to now boi.

[Chad Burger]

Cheers Chaircat, if you ever make it to a Gizzards gig I'll show you a couple of my toys, they are great fun.

MM, Gizzards!

Ha thanks Lickerr!

I got some batteries into the turnin turbo dashboard and it seems to work but theres no sound... Im assuming the thing never made sound though.. perhaps someone who owned one back in the day can set me straight

They made car noises like for the indicators and horn and a different engine sound for each gear

[Chad Burger]

ahhh so mine must be broken somehow. Thats a good enough excuse to open it up and have a shot at fixing it. Thanks Ryzakk!

[Ryzakk]

Did you fix the Turbo toy?

[Chad Burger]

not yet its on my pile of shame in my shed. I need to clone myself to get all my jobzz done.

[zarquin]

Got any new projects on the go chad??

[Chad Burger]

I have just aquired a speak and spell and a speak and maths so I think theyll be my next projects. I also have some old speakers that Im going to wire little amp circuits into to turn them into little shitty combos for guitars. Im just so bloody busy. Some fun Gizzard stuff on the go as well so I shant complain.

[KenobiCornflake]

Hi guys, I'm producing a short documentary about circuit bending and vintage video game music. Seňor Chad and The Gizzards have agreed to take part...

I was wondering if there was anyone out there that recycles and reformats old gear, or know of any chiptunes artists?
