* <<F8V.0708>> PROJECTS
Lots of things I'd like to be working on right now.

Getting reacquainted with 6502 assembly the past couple of nights.  
Bashed-out a simple little program to stuff random numbers into POKEY 
and GTIA's player/missile registers; having to re-learn how to 
restructure programs in assembly, how to do comparisons and loops – 
basically everything. 

Originally I wanted to write my chain sequencer to use display-list 
interrupts for timing – that would give a 1/60 second system clock 
– but in light of the fact that I have my DR-55 available, and the 
Atari is already modded to accept a clock in the form of a BREAK key 
interrupt, I might as well go-ahead and write it to work with the 
external clock.

This also came to mind because I have been finding  minimal 
electronic/cold wave music to be inspiring lately, and the DR-55 has 
a great old analog drum sound that I'd like to play with.

On the visual-art front, two things: I want to re-work some old 
illustrations like Invex The Invisible Man and Atari Force Pyjamas 
into a newer style.  Invex is 5 years old, and the pyjamas piece is 
even older – I've improved a lot since then.  Those (and others) 
are solid compositions, though, and I'd like to fix 'em up and sell 
them as prints.

I also want to do some landscape painting.  Digital, of course.  I 
have snapped a few photos with my phone camera that I think have the 
fundamentals of strong compositions, but I'd like to abstract them 
into good paintings.  Not something I've done much of before, but 
something I think I can do.  I have to try.

My project for right this moment is to eat this bowl of ramen in my 
lap.  Terrible ramen – Mr. Noodles – but I stuck an egg, a sheet 
of nori, and a dollop of red chili paste into it, so it might just 
hit the spot.
