Quake on an oscilloscope - General

[video=youtube;aMli33ornEU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMli33ornEU[/video] This is so great.

I cant even begin to work out how this was managed.

This would look pretty great in some alt-history/cyberpunk scifi as it's an actual thing that operates, instead of the shitty artists-impression of what could low fidelity computer graphics look like that we usually get.

i want to see Second Reality on this

[QUOTE=barrab;46815834]I cant even begin to work out how this was managed.[/QUOTE] Converting wireframe renders to sound is a very simple way of describing it.

Give a person sound, and they'll turn it into a game. This is seriously fascinating.

Quake: Daredevil edition

Dang, I was hoping we would be able to hear what the oscilloscope sounded like. Those frequencies would have been very strange to listen too.

[QUOTE=LoneWolf_Recon;46816711]He may have had frequencies above the audible range (Given that his refresh rate was 96kHz)[/QUOTE] The 96kHz audio is more of a resolution than a frequency. 96kHz is a common audio sampling rate used on dvd/blu-ray movies. It's probably the minimum refresh rate needed to produce visuals on the oscilloscope that are recognizable to humans.

Something about it is creepy as shit.

is this how bats see am i a bat now??

using xy mode it can't be that difficult assuming you write a rasterizer but still really awesome

The audio is in the articles. It's terrifying [editline]29th December 2014[/editline] [url]http://www.lofibucket.com/download/e1m1_fast_48khz.wav[/url]

This instance however, it was used to play quake on an oscilloscope.
