This is a simple microphone preamplifier circuit which you can use between your microphone and stereo amplifier. This circuit amplifier microphone suitable for use with normal home stereo amplifier line/CD/aux/tape inputs. This microphone preamplifier can take both dynamic and electret microphone inputs (preamplifier provides power foe electret microphone elements). The idea of this circuit is to keep the design as simple as possible to be easy to build. That was my goal when I needed a simple external microphone preamplifier for my mixer. The performance of the circuit is nothing superior but can be used with many not so serious projects.
Step 1: Copy the following into a text file or download the attached, call it hooked
#!/bin/bash# hooked created by Carlyn Maw September 2010say "I"say "cant"say "stop"say "this"say "feeling"say "deep"say "inside"say "of"say "me"Step 2: Open a window in terminal, type the following% cd <directory/of/hooked>% chmod 755 hookedStep 3: Open a second Terminal window, type the following
% while [ 1 ] ; do say -v Ralph "ew guh chaka"; done Step 4: In the first window type…% ./hookedStep 5: Control C in second, ew-guh-window

It’s amazing where a google search on a completely unrelated subject can lead!
“designers andrea bandoni and joana meroz created ‘the archetypical vase’ to question the idea of creating and understanding objects through textual language. the design is part of their project ‘the object without a story’ which the two brazilian designers based in the netherlands explored together. the two analysed hundred of stories accompanying design objects and picked out common words and expressions to create new stories for non-existing objects. “
Wow. This came up at the end of Steve Lampen’s talk last night at CRASH Space. His talk started with Bhagavad-Gita and end with Zardoz as we talked about the consequences of eternal life (the classic dilema of when “can we?” turns into “should we?”)
