I want to fool around with implimenting some ideas regarding algorythmic music composition and I thought that someone's unused, dusty, abandoned (but working) commodore 64 would be a good way to begin. I would also consider mail-order if someone could steer me towards a rock-bottom wholesale outlet. (I am your typical penniless grad student). Art comes from simplifying a problem to its essentials, right? And so it seems that a machine as ancient (classic) as the c64 would be a great way to explore emusic on a very fundamental level. So any help that anyone out there is willing to give, any information towards realizing my goal, would be appreciated. If there is anyone out there who is using the c64 for such a purpose I would really like to talk with you.
