i like the whole DIY attitude . i have no engineerg education just a basic knowledge of low voltage electronics. i rember seeing articles on how to build your own sampler out of analog to digital converters and things like that. i started out with computers in 1980(i think) putting together a timex sinclair kit he ordered(quite a frustrating computer glad that C=64 came along a few years later)
is anyone else interested in realtime embeded controllers like the basic stamp, or the audrino or m68chc11(i used the pc dev pack from it but aminet had shareware for it. i have ideas for installation work using amiga 1200s, in tower cases, controlling sensors to do lights sound slideprojectors ect. (of course all this kind of gear exits already but it's all proprietary and expensive)
i was pretty simple with the commodore 64, just use peeks and pokes to the user port (i even just soldered telephone directy to the thing instead of using a connector for one art gallry project i did in chicago (unfortunatly my coding was terrible and i didn't have an eeprom burner to play with to really learn to use it well)
all i can do really well is draw anyways lol
