Your DS is now a Korg

March 16th, 2008 by admin

Some bright sparks at AQ Interactive have created a music application for the DS. Called the Korg DS10, it has synthesiser, drum machine, sequencer and effects and filters.

The idea is great but, for me, it’s the interface that will be the most interesting thing to explore. No use of the D-Pad or buttons, the whole thing is managed through the touch-screen. So many possibilities - can a novice keep track?

Look forward to trying it out.

Posted to subotron. Thanks to Conor for pointing it out.

Sony must be bricking it

Apparently “The busiest shopping day of 2007 for Amazon.com was December 10, when the online retailer sold 5.4 million items — that’s an average of 62.5 ITEMS PER SECOND! Bonus trivia: 17 of those 62.5 items were Nintendo Wii game systems.!”

That’s an awful lot of Wiis.

Do you still need to buy it?

Lego Digital Designer - download, install and build Lego on your desktop. At the end of the day, you want to see it in physical form so buy more Lego.

Astute use of online. As one would expect from Lego, whose careful franchising in recent years has kept quality high whilst upping the bottom line.

Other brands take note.

Props to Conor for telling us about this.

This interactive art piece/toy from Uniqlo lets you play about with their logo, scaling, rotating and dividing it to create comopsitions like the one above. Several people from around the world will be collaborating on one grid at any one time, so you have to move fast, as the grid is constantly changing…
