New toy!!

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 17:05:00 +0000

I went to a scrap yard to try and get some cash for a set of steel brake rotors today. the first yard wouldn't take them so they directed me to one a little bit out of town. I got there and the guy said, sorry, i won't give you cash but i'll take them. I decided to just give them to him because i couldn't just drop them into our dumpster. trash people aren't down with that shit.

well, at this scrap yard, was also an antique shop. AWESOME!

I scoped around this warehouse with old dusty piled up to the ceiling, and i mean boxes and model train sets and wall hangings, piled on top of each other, up the the ceiling. so much stuff. honestly, i was searching for like an old guitar or some other noise maker and maybe an old stash of instant film or something. turns out i found an old kodak instant film camera, but next to it, WAS A FUCKING REEL TO REEL STEREO RECORDER!! WOOO! he wanted $20 bucks for it, which i was totally for that price. we plugged it in to see if it powered on, and nothing. he said, take it home, if it doesn't work, don't bring it back, but if it does work, i'll trust you to bring me $20 dollars. i said "sold!"

he also gave me a piece of paper with his nephews band website on it. sweet tunes, here is a video of them playing live.

dude has a good voice

anyways. we said goodbye, i went home, plugged it in, still nothing. well, as obvious as it should have been, i turned the volume knob and lights came on. woo! i guess the next step is to head back to mr. joel barton and hold my word by giving him $20. than of course getting some tape to record onto.

the stereo recorder is a Panasonic RS-760S Solid State Stereo Phonic/Recorder and uses 1/4" tape on 7" reels.

i cant wait!

more circuit bending. sorry, no video yet

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Fri, 28 May 2010 16:31:00 +0000

I decided to share some circuit bent noises in the same audio clip.
last night i finished up with the disney princess keyboard. it makes some cool noises but nothing to insane. so i recorded it on the same track as my casio mt-240.
the one from this commercial

well here is a picture of me about to record this track, than of course, the media player under it so you can listen. if you like the noises and you want some samples of your own. email me at stickbug.mc@gmail.com

Elmo and Big Bird Spelling And Bending

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Thu, 27 May 2010 06:44:00 +0000

Tascha bought me an Elmo and Big Bird spelling toy to play with.
So, of course I wanted to take it apart and do some nerdy shit to it.

here is it with all of its guts spilled all over the place

because i still need practice, more materials, and this toy didn't have much to offer, i kinda had to call it quits. err with bending its circuits. so instead i just added a 1/4" output jack to it.

now i can record the alphabet and add neat effects.

here is a test run i just did. LISTEN TO IT!

Watch out for phony group sex

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Wed, 26 May 2010 05:32:00 +0000

i wish i could find the ad

-----------------------------------

Cops: Connecticut man placed phony ad to torment female neighbor

Cops: Connecticut man placed phony ad to torment female neighbor APRIL 22--Meet Philip Conran. In a bid to torment a female neighbor with whom he was fighting, the Connecticut man allegedly placed a phony Craigslist ad directing men seeking "group sex" to the woman's home, police charge. Conran, a 42-year-old chef, today made his initial court appearance in connection with reckless endangerment and harassment counts filed as a result of the fake April 5 online classified. Investigators tied Conran to the Craigslist "casual encounters" posting--which was purportedly placed by a "West Hartford soccer mom" and headlined "looking for lust"--through an analysis of records obtained from Craigslist and AT&T Internet Services, according to an arrest affidavit. When cops tracked an IP address to Conran's home, he confessed to posting the "party sex" ad directing men to next-door neighbor Terry Sharp's Dartmouth Avenue home. The ad, posted April 5, said a woman in West Hartford wanted to "please as many as I can before I go to work!" Conran, free on $75,000 bond, is the second person to be arrested as a result of the Craigslist posting. Richard Zeh, one of about a dozen men who showed up to answer the ad, was charged with burglary, sexual assault, and trespassing after he groped and made obscene comments to a 18-year-old woman. Zeh, a 29-year-old personal trainer, accosted the woman after mistakenly going to the wrong West Hartford address. Zeh told police that he was "bored" when he decided to answer the Craigslist ad. He acknowledged that the button on his shorts had "fallen off" and that his "pubic hair and his erect penis could have been sticking out of his pants" when he walked into the teenager's residence.

------------------------

Man arrested after answering phony Craigslist "group sex" ad

APRIL 6--Meet Richard Zeh. The Connecticut man, 29, yesterday was perusing Craigslist when he came across a personal ad purportedly placed by a "West Hartford soccer mom" who was "looking for group sex!" As seen at right, the "looking for lust" solicitation noted that the woman was "free until 11:00," and that she sought to "please as many as I can before work!" The classified--which was phony, of course--directed men to a West Hartford address. When a dozen would-be suitors arrived at the home, residents told the men that they had not placed the Craigslist ad and directed them to leave. However, when Zeh arrived, he mistakenly went to a neighboring home, and let himself in. Zeh was confronted there by an 18-year-old woman who told him she knew nothing about the Craigslist ad. After repeated requests from the teenager, Zeh left the home. He then went to the address listed in the Craigslist ad, and was, like the other men, quickly turned away. Amazingly, Zeh, a personal trainer, then returned to the teen's house, again let himself in, and "made obscene comments to the victim and grabbed her," according to a West Hartford Police Department incident summary. Zeh was arrested yesterday on a variety of criminal charges, including burglary, sexual assault, and trespassing. Police are investigating who placed the fake Craigslist ad.

it was very crowded, but i know you noticed me. you were an angel, i'm sure of that. its hard on me knowing the odds of you ever seeing this ad are so small. i dont know what to do. it was very cold that day and you were with another man, i think so but im the jealous type. like i said, it was crowded, im not sure if he was your man, i wont lose any sleep over whether or not he was with you. i just wanted you to know, i think you're beautiful. also, i apologize for how i looked that day, i guess in more than one way i was flying high, you could see it on my face, huh?
i want you to know, my love is pure, if you do see this ad, contact me. tell me what i was wearing and be specific, if its you, it will be hard not to remember what i was wearing.

Bending Furbys

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 14:30:00 +0000

I learned something about a small hobby ive started getting into lately. Furbys are easy to short out, not too easy to get to their circuit leads (or the right ones for that matter), but things wont be as neat as i wish they could be (particularly with furbys). Oh by the way, the hobby being dabbled with is know as circuit bending. It's very easy and any idiot with some wires and a soldering iron can do it.

Listen to this song while reading the rest of this post.
(there is no meaning connection, just a mood thing in the morning while posting this)

(jesus thats a good song)

So here is what the furby looked like before i gutted it.

Right, cute as fuck but still standing strong with its creepy points. this little work of art didnt say much in all honesty. It would be like, im tired again, snooooooze snooooooze, and than stopped making noise only to not talk or say anything different after passin out. it would repeat this snooze when i would reset it though.

this is the furby when i took the fur off

the creepy points went up for sure. its amazing how different animals look with their fur ripped off, yeah?
so, after skinning it, i took out screws (sorry, i didnt take pictures of its insides, but if youre really that curious, CLICK HERE). I was messing with leads and connecting circuits together, THE FURBY SAID OTHER NORMAL FURBY STUFF! even though i got it out of its sleep trance, its still cracked open with guts spillin, i cant stop here. welllll eventually, i came across a couple connections that made the motors go nuts and one that made it make lots of crackling noises. that boring, sorry, the other furby videos gave me the wrong impression for sure. all those folks did was add an audio out jack on their furbys and routed it into an effects box of whatever sort. DAMMIT! how did i not notice. and on top of this realization, i accidentally hit whatever circuit too many times and took the furbys soul. it wont talk, it wont dance, it wont eat, nothing! it lives a quiet boring life now. and its my fault. it used to be so kinda lively. :(

WELL, i finished my crazy knob on my casio. so, if i find a video camera, you can bet your ass ill be makin a crazy knob video.
If any of you are secret electronics gurus and have any ideas and have the ability to explain them to me, hit me up, i could use some guidance.

Why does my dr. pepper taste like soap and why did it make my mouth go numb?

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 18:14:00 +0000

i was rather puzzled today so i asked the generous Yahoo!Answers community.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

okay, so i usually drink dr. pepper. in restaurants, at work, at school, everywhere! actually, i drink wayyyy more soda than i aught to be. i work at a gas station where i can drink fountain drinks for free. i drink about 16 ounces of dr. pepper for every hour and a half during my 8 hour shift and than more depending on where im at or what im doing outside of work. so, yes, i drink A LOT of dr. pepper and i love how it tastes.

today at school, i got a can of dr. pepper from a vending machine to sip on while digitizing some raw video. i get in front of the computer, crack it open, and take a swig. it tastes kinda funny. i try it again to double take the sensation, my tongue notices the inside of the rim as i drink it, making sure my tongue gets as much flavor as this soda has to offer. it kinda tastes like dish soap. its not really a bad taste because its still sugary but the taste of soap is odd. the carbonation level is at a normal and its still pretty cold.
as i continue working on the computer and pondering this soapy taste, i start to notice my mouth feeling weird, like i put oragel on my lips, teeth, and tongue. now i know the acid level of dr. pepper is high but like i said before, i drink it a lot and my tongue has never gone numb.
so, its been about an hour and a half since the first sip and about 30 minutes since my last. my tongue is still kinda numb feeling and i still have a soapy aftertaste. i didnt pour it out because im waiting for a family member to come home and see if its just me or if this soda has got some funk to it.
if any of you has an idea of why this soda is treating my mouth the way it has, please help me with some explanation or just tell me im a crazy idiot and it was a waste of time and 5 points asking this question.

thanks

-------------------------------------------------------------------

R.E.s answer
There was likely something spilled on the outside of the can. There is little to no chance of knowing what it was at this point.
Solution- Always rinse cans (this includes pantry cans) before opening them! They are known for having all sorts of terrible things on them. I will spare you the details as to common substances found on cans. I promise you don't want to know. Anyway, you didn't die yet, so you are probably fine.

(jesus! you recieve the best answer! i will for sure wipe off my cans from now on.)

zanys answer
Okay i don't know why it tastes like soap
but it makes your mouth go numb cuz its fizzy!

(fuckin, duh, why do ya gotta go and get all smart on me like that. i cant believe i let that pass over my head)

u work at the movies...u have red hair and i think u were very beautiful...we had a small chat while i was ordering my nachos lol tell me what ur name tag said and maybe we can talk somemore

----------------------------------

okay, man, i used to work at this theater and still keep in touch with some of the employees, i know who this missed connection is for. how old are you? what kinda plans would you have if she contacted you? make some more nachos? shes 17years old. shes super cool so dont get too flattered if she was polite while serving you junk food. those employees have to be polite when selling you a $6.50 tray of nachos. "u" did great with the craigslist ad too man. im sure she melted. "ur" a legend in throwing game my good captain.

(and a reply to this ad)

Yeah I've seen him intermittently. Not always there but I have seen him more than once and never really hear what he's saying. Occasionally, these sort of fellows pop up in this area. I don't see it as an annoyance or a bad thing, for, I respect the arts and musical expression.

Because we all love them and their music, it's been decided to post another video of them.
Due to the number of folks ive had request the chords/tab of this song,
ive posted them on ultimate guitar <---(click there)
It seems that everyone likes mine and tascha's cover of it, and you can see it here.
Its a pretty simple guitar part but it takes some pipes to sing like they do.

well here is that video i promised.

Casiotone Casiopeia Commercial

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 19:46:00 +0000

tascha and i made this commercial for my field tv production class. the idea was to make a 30 second commercial using Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

if you are un-familiar with Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, click the pyramid to visit a blog where it is explained.

now for my commercial. this commercial had orders to consist of something from each level on the pyramid.

okay i think ive got something from each level crammed into a 30 second commercial, glorifying a late 80's Casio Keyboard i picked up at goodwill for $5.

next thing on my list to do is circuit bend that bad boy and melt brains with insane noises. kinda like this guy did with his casio mt-240 .

leave a comment or something. remember, im looking for more authors, so dont be afraid to email me an example of what you could put on this blog at stickbug.mc@gmail.com

SORRY GUYS! but yes!

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 20:27:00 +0000

I havnt posted anything lately. Its been hard to get on the internet and make time. AHH! sooooo, since i suck and cant make time, anybody else want to be an author of this blog??? i am thinking on setting up a posting schedule. something like, Sexturdays for raunchy craigslist personals, and like, hipster trash tuesdays for music and cocaine. of course you can still just post whatever you want. as long as it fits within the idea of this blog. ridiculous personal ads and insanity from rants & raves, alternative music and art (we can be fancy and call it "indie"), funny stuff, and whatever else you think would make this blog fantastic.
SOOOO, if you want to be an author, send me an email at stickbug.mc@gmail.com with an example of what you would end up posting. dont be shy, at all. also, lose some shame too. people like sex and music.

i was bound to do this eventually

im in a contest for hottest beer drinking woman but need more ppl to go vote for me this week please. http://yeldahgoods.com/SexyBeerWoman.html vote for Raylene please! bottoms up lol

*(i just looked her up for you)

Re:hottest beer drinking woman contest (online) (Cove)

Hell, you ain't even drinking a beer in your pic. Besides, you're ugly as shit.

*(now sir, i personally am not a fan of blonds but lord, that is very out spoken)

re hottie beer contest

lol if i thought i was gorgeous i would try to be a model, but i dont. im just screwing around tryin to get a few more votes. i have seen all the attention this site gets and figured ppl wouldnt mind clicking a button

*(screwing around? naaa.)

re: hottie (killeen)

You are cute (and I'm a woman saying that!), don't listen to the cheeto-fingered haters! Good luck!

*(great job on the defensive, but what the fuck is wrong with cheeto-fingers. dont act like you dont enjoy a good snack.)

personally, i dont thing shes "ugly as shit" but really, a hottie beer drinking contest? i was recently described the statistics of intelligent/dim witted people in this part of texas. well, we for sure have the most idiots. now, im not saying im a genius or anything, i suck at math, retaining information, and school, although, i am aware of the idiots that past me in wal mart and everywhere else. in reality, these people aught to find other interests. like rather than their rims or how many tattoos they have, they could just buy a reliable vehicle and express their appreciation for visual art by maybe going to an art show or something. (btw. ed hardy is ridiculous. fuck off if you own a shirt or lighter. youre the biggest tool of them all.) also, maybe instead of entering yourself into a contest for "beer drinking hotties", try not focusing your time on getting drunk and fucking. thats just destructive. the large bulk of people who live in this town dedicate everything they do towards shit talking or impressing. i like to talk bad about people at times and its healthy to wear nice cloths to feel good about myself. sure im guilty but jesus, a beer drinking hottie contest?

honestly, i voted for Pia.

this guy will talk to anyone about anything

noreply@blogger.com (neogondawanna) — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 18:38:00 +0000

i love this guy and i dont even know him. It is mostly because he has on an authenitc Zissou cap and sticking out of his coat a little, you can tell he is wearing his strike orce uniform. On the side of me loving him because of his honorable life style and respectable crew he runs with, he alse came up with a great idea. even tho he did this four years ago, it doesnt mean it is an outdated idea.

this man will talk to anyone about anything

he put this booth next to organizations tabling political and religious causes. instead of having to pick and choose what kind of information you want, from whatever focused person, and having to navigate through the park to do so, you can talk to this guy about anything. politics, space travel, growing crops, your kids, how grandma hunts road runners out in the desert, the weather......... ANYTHING

what an amazing thing to do! woah!

not only did this guy sport some honorable threads and make open conversation available to everyone, he also made instructions for folks like you and me to do the same!

Click on the children's book to go to the instructions. also if you want, click HERE to go buy this book! its a win/win no matter what you click! also dont forget to leave comments and suggestion.

i found the file streaming on SuperMasterpiece. the old quality is very quiet and rather poppy. the quiet and poppy comes from the fact that it was recorded in 1936 and released on vinyl. i remastered the file and that is what is streaming above.
