And also some music made with an actual tracker, as some sort of answer to people who just shove a MIDI file through their favourite NES-like soundfont and call it an "8 bit remix":

@ Shep: The tone-mapping is a bit garish, but you did it without murdering contrast so points to you for that.
@ Rye: Your cameraman got a bit too frenetic for my taste on some of those shots of the band - just crossed the line to where it became hard for me to track the musicians - but otherwise that's pretty boss.
Digital darkroom (fuck yeah!)
Instant film (fuck yeah!)

I know it's far from perfect, but for a cameraphone shot off the cuff, I'm quite proud of it.

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

This is also a nice shot, although the pure white surfaces on the lower left side are a little disconcerting.Rye wrote:I done a cat photo with my cameraphone!
