Pixilang
By Alexander Zolotov
Pixilang is a pixel-oriented programming language for small graphics/sound applications and experiments. Originally created by Alexander Zolotov (NightRadio) and Mik Razuvaev (Goglus) for non-programmers and artists. It is cross-platform and open source (MIT).
Pixilang programs are stored in text files (UTF-8 encoding) with extensions .txt or .pixi. So you can use your favorite text editor to create/edit these files. Pixilang has no built-in editor.
Key features:
• universal containers (pixi-container) for any type of data;
• dynamically typed variables (for integer or floating point numbers);
• functions for sound synthesis and recording;
• functions for block data processing;
• supported file formats (load/save): WAV, PNG, JPG, GIF (animated);
• native code (external dynamic libraries) support;
• OpenGL acceleration.

Fractal Bits is a drum synth with over four billion unique sounds created by fractal algorithms.Each set of 12 drums corresponds to a code of 8 characters (you can save/copy/paste it as plain text).Features: * search for new sounds with three buttons: next random set, edit...
Your space to experiment - with Mutant you create “crazy different” music intuitively. Turn the Hypercube, and you can hear your sound from new perspectives again and again.EXPERIMENTING TROUGH INTUITIVE CONTROLSAll interactions are recorded and played back in loops, similar to m...
PixiTracker 1BIT is a simple and fun tool to quickly create musical sketches, chiptunes and experiments with TRUE 1-BIT SOUND (like on old microcomputers).No musical knowledge required![ Key features ]• retro-style 1-bit sampler: only 1 and 0 in the final mix;• patt...
The world around us is an endless source of visual information, the flow of the fractal code of life. Nature - Oscillator is one of the attempts to translate this code to sound, using spectral synthesis algorithm of the Virtual ANS engine (software simulator of the unique Russian synthesizer A...
PhonoPaper is: • format of graphical representation of the sound (music, human voice, etc.); in other words, it is the 2D audio barcode (by analogy with the QR-code); • real-time PhonoPaper-code reader (using the camera); • PhonoPaper-code generator (sound to image convert...
Virtual ANS is a software simulator of the unique Russian synthesizer ANS - photoelectronic musical instrument created by Evgeny Murzin from 1938 to 1958. The ANS made it possible to draw music in the form of a spectrogram (sonogram), without live instruments and performers. It was used by Sta...
Retro-style simulator of flight through the pixel cave.Features: * pixel graphics and effects; * real-time synthesized music (using SunVox); * one touch control (just touch the screen to take off).Code/graphics/music by NightRadio (Alexander Zolotov)
Quantum VJ HD is a simple glitch-style audio visualizer (video generator). It can receive sound from the microphone or from the Line-in port (depends on the system settings). Sound will be converted to the graphic elements byte by byte. The final video can be mixed with the camera stream in re...
