Custom Guitars via Software

workbench.jpgIt’s been a long time since I rock and rolled, but this kind of makes me want to take up Old Lucille again. Variax Line6 makes custom, programmable guitars called the ‘Variax’ that can mimic any type of stringed instrument known to man. Now they have hot software that allows you to change everything from tuning to the capacitors in the pick-ups in these self-same guitars. They announced this software last year but only just now got around to shipping it.

Moleskine Search Engine Roundup: A Not Very Exhaustive List

Fan Sites

What I am is a big fan of tiny improvements. And cool tricks. And time savers. So, whenever I find a neat little bauble or a sexy new hack, I’ve tended to barrage my unsuspecting friends and email-list associates with lengthy, structured “Too Much Information!”(TMI) breakdowns and tutorials. (Sorry, guys.) Well, no more–I promise.

Its impeccable provenance notwithstanding this site will talk more about the places and adventures, life’s little dramas and other forgettable events that otherwise would have been lost were it not scrawled between the pages of these little black books.

Moleskine Art

From my experience, there is a combination of things that enables me to produce drawings I like: mindfulness, peacely explore previous mental state, free to start drawing but concentrate on the flow. I always amaze myself and feel tremendous satisfaction after a nice drawing is produced. Explore and click on any interesting objects! I hope you’ll have a pleasant journey.

Information

Moleskine Notebooks are oilcloth-covered1 notebooks, manufactured by Modo and Modo of Italy, based on a design by a small stationer in Tours, France. The standard Moleskine Notebook measures 9 x 14cm and features the following: lightweight, acid-free paper, a foldable pocket in the back cover, a cloth ribbon attached to the spine to serve as a bookmark, and a woven elastic band attached to the back to keep the book closed when not in use. The name (officially pronounced mol-a-skeen-a, although it can vary) comes from the French spelling of ‘moleskin’, which the oilcloth covering resembles, and is a trademark of Modo and Modo.
