Video: Dyskograf (Demonstration)

It’s incredible to see all kinds of innovation when it comes to turntablism and dj hardware these days. This interactive concept is called a ‘dyskograf’. It’s a graphic disk reader with a mechanism that reads felt pen marks. The needle is replaced by a camera positioned above the turntable to transform the marks into a musical sequence.

Apparently the creator is considering a Kickstarter campaign to manufacture this interactive sound installation. What do you think of this concept? Let us know on our Facebook page. The demonstration below is pumping techno music, but only imagine what kind of hip hop beats you can create with only a paper record and a flat pen…

Just an ordinary guy always on the hunt for extraordinary music. Not just as the founder of The Find Magazine & Rucksack Records, but also as a freelance music journalist (bylines at Tracklib, Bandcamp, Wax Poetics, DIG Mag, among others) and—above all—out of love for all kinds of good music.
