Twsbi Inspiration

[IonutZ]

Well hello there!

 

So a couple of days ago I acquired a TWSBI pen and it has inspired me to create a song, song's called Twizby and I thought I'd share it with you guys since this forum's the reason I bought a TWSBI in the first place

 

Genre: Progressive House

 

I hope there's electronic music fans around here, I'm most likely going to push this song to a label, I've been getting great feedback from outstanding DJ/producers across the nation, this is the product of the 2nd day working on this tune:

 

John Caza - Twizby (Fountain Pen Network Mixdown)

 

Enjoy,

 

John Caza

Far out.

 

That's pretty cool.

New landmark for Twsbi - probably first fountain pen to inspire music composition; although folks routinely pen music with FPs. Surely can be the background score of Twsbi's first TV spot.

Have to say, though...too many spaces in the file name!

HAL9000? You are a scholar and a gentleman.

very cool. It wouldn't directly stream, but when downloaded it played fine. Well done!

[IonutZ]

Glad you like it

The HAL9000 bit was actually inspired by the case design of my current desktop computer. A quad-core Lenovo K100, it has a giant glowing red LED on the front of the case. People immediately associate it with HAL's "eye."

Hello Dave.

[speedy]

Wow, this is so cool!

 

Some idea of twsbi is inspired by Apple, yes.

and this song is inspired by twsbi. This is really cool.

 

so the twsbi slogan " Inspired by Writing" is starting to work.

 

Great job!

 

I wonder if you will allow me to play it in some proper situation as back ground music, like if twsbi has attend an exhibition and so on?

Wow.. that is a sweet case! Looking at the specs for the computer. So that is a power dial? Hmmmmmm....

[IonutZ]

hey Speedy, of course you're more than welcome to, but if you'll allow me to finish it, I will give you the final product in 320kbps, industry standard format!

 

Cheers

Wow, that will be great. thank you!

You can email speedy@twsbi.com to let me know when it is done.

Heh. The "power dial" is supposed to throttle down the CPU usage or some such...I haven't noticed that it does a dang thing, other than change the color of the "breathing" LED from red to blue to green. Right now, while writing this, the CPUs are running 1.6 GHz (instead of 2.4 GHz). Turning the "power dial" doesn't change that. The CPUs only kick up to 2.4 GHz when I'm doing video editing or stuff like that.

 

Kind of a moot point, since the "power dial" is wired directly into the power supply, and I'm getting ready to replace it with a 650 watt supply...the LED is probably going to go away, at least the "breathing" part of it.

Yeah, I have a boost button on my case that does about nothing as well. I wonder if the dial can be worked into a control for fan speed instead. Anyway... off topic chatter

 

Maybe mount a TWSBI button in the center of the LED...

[IonutZ]

etoyoc, it shouldn't be more than 3 wires to solder to achieve a fan speed control instead!

Just wire up a bunch of high-output red LED's and a microcontroller to do PWM, so you can have a slowly pulsating red light...

I'm going to revive this thread with a quick update:

 

Twizby has been signed to label Progrezo Records (under a new track name Cartagena, due to copyright purposes)! I will post a link once the Brazilian-based label publishes the track (they promised this week)! So I'm super :ninja:ed about this and now considering fitting the TWSBI with a 14ct gold nib!
