“Eye of the tiger” on dot matrix printer

“Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor is recreated with surprising accuracy by a dot matrix printer in this 2013 video by MIDIDesaster. To create the video, MIDIDesaster converted an old dot matrix printer into a MIDI sound generator that can play up to 21 notes at once. MIDIDesaster has posted videos of several other songs, including the theme song from The Benny Hill Show. That particular video also includes an explanation of how the printer was converted.

A group of Siberian percussionists have become an internet hit with an exhibition of ice drumming on frozen Lake Baikal.

In minus 20C, they found by pure chance that the one metre thick ice has a distinctive and haunting rhythm all of its own, reported the Siberian Times.

‘I felt like we were playing on the drums that Nature has left out for us, alone under the sun on the frozen waters of the world’s most magnificent lake,’ said Irkutsk architect Natalya Vlasevskaya, 31, a mother-of-one and organiser of Etnobit percussion group.
