tec Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Vivid memories of exploring this site on the computer round an ex-girlfriend's house, no wonder she dumped me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud capture Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 nice, any idea if the old lexaunculpt site was saved somewhere? That was probably my favorite of the old interactive sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I went ahead and loaded up IE 8 on a Windows 7 VM and installed Shockwave Player. Recorded in OBS, zoomed and edited with After Effects. The original view size was about 320px x 240px, truly a marvel in 2002 I'm sure, and I think it stands up today, 16 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right.. it is the right tempo but I don't recall having heard it. I have been very curious about that particular loop since it's obv inspired by (edit: or atleast very similar to) the societas track at 42 min (which is still not identified!)

When I first played the BOC Loops video, the first thing that popped into my mind was the "747" islands part. I imagine BOC has an enormous library of 'vignette' sounds like this at their disposal...
