8 Track Cartridge Puns

I recorded a piano improvisation while a 200 foot tape loop rotated around me. At each corner of the room sat an 8-track cartridge player that played back the signal the recording machine created. There was a metal strip on the loop that activated the "program chance" function on each player once it was played. I used four separate 8-track players for this.

A dear friend and I embarked on creating an experimental music album dedicated to the forgotten unincorporated hamlet of Utopia, Ohio. We are both Cincinnati musicians. I (Nick Keeling) am a pianist and my friend (Andrea Gutmann Fuentes) is a violinist. We recorded our respected classical improvisation session through a series of interconnected tape-loops made of old 8-track tape players. During our session, we focused on this 1983 photograph from Gregor MacDonald who was more than willing to allow us to use his image. I frequently visit this area while on my fall drives down to Ripley, Ohio. The history of Utopia is rather unique, with similarities of many other Utopian societies such as New Harmony, Indiana.

Hope you all enjoy the album.

I created a small zine / guide on how I make music from 8-track tapes I find. I loop them together through similar techniques found in frippertronics, but the 8-track tape machine offers some interesting quirks to a tape delay you can't find in other experimental tape loops.

I wanted to create this guide because it is super fun to mess with 8-track tapes. I posted it on my bandcamp merch page. https://nickkeeling.bandcamp.com/merch/8-track-tape-delay-guide

Not sure if this is the right D8 sub to post this, but I've recently been interested in Delta 8 and after learning of the vast amount of unsafe products, I've tried my best to find reputable brands that post their test results.

I wasn't aware that what qualifies as "clean" requires extremely extensive testing, and even still, I've seen people on Reddit discredit lab results for certain companies because the testing wasn't thorough enough or wasn't tested through an official company that can give a valid COA. I recently just found out that one of my preferred brands, Treetop hemp co, despite posting their lab tested results apparently fakes them (didn't really look into how, but have seen many people echo this sentiment).

All in all, I've seen a vast amount of people disagreeing with each other about the safety and dangers, and haven't really found a clear consensus. I've seen people on r/Cleancarts claim that no D8 product is actually safe, but I'm not sure about that.

So I guess what I'm asking is, are there any Delta 8 companies that are objectively 100% free of harmful chemicals? How can I be sure that lab tested results are valid and not faked?

Thanks in advance.

As the title says. Do you have to have a player or something?

I have seen attempts in the past to create a digital sensor that could be placed in a 35mm camera so that you could use a film camera to shoot digital images. Never heard of any of them being very successful but it got me wondering...

First off I know the market is probably too small for it to be worth actually making something like this, but what if someone put all the electronic bits, processors, storage or space for a flash storage card, battery, all that kind of stuff into a Super 8 film cartridge? Put a sensor like the kind you would find in a smart phone where the film would be exposed, pop the digital cartridge into an old Super 8 camera, and start making movies. The cartridge is big enough it seems like fitting it all in wouldn't be a problem, you might even be able to have the cartridge determine the frame rate based off how fast the camera is moving a fake spool in the cartridge, and over time it seems like it would make shooting digital Super 8 a lot cheaper than actually using film.

Any electronics wizzards out there think this might be possible?

As per Texas Department of State Health Services > All other forms of THC, including Delta-8 in any concentration and Delta-9 exceeding 0.3%, are considered Schedule I controlled substances.

a delta-8 vape cartridge with a COA that shows less than 0.3% delta-9 THC is ILLEGAL. https://www.dshs.texas.gov/hemp/docs/DraftHempRuleDecember10.pdf

any theory a lawyer says can only be tested in court in front of a judge and at your expense.

Happened across a box of these ancient relics at a garage sale yesterday, which I haven't seen in ages, and decided to make a theme out of it so let's take a trip back in time today. It's all pretty wide open with lots to choose from. Feel free to add links in the comments to any listings or old blogs you think might help the group in their searches. The first one I just found was this. Happy hunting!
