The day’s tally:
❌ Broke my favorite glass😓 the one a friend gifted me, just the right size for water. It’s silly, but it stings.
✅ Bought a matte screen protector that mimics paper. Drawing’s back on the menu.
✅ Launched a new t-shirt design in my shop. Seeing it live? Pure joy.
Grief and progress, side by side. That’s how it goes, I guess.
Off To The Seaside With The Circuit Bent G6 Thumb Camera
The circuit bent G6 Thumb Camera has become my carry anywhere camera, even when I didn’t plan to take it with me. On Monday we decided to go to Costa Nova for lunch. There’s a fabulous seafood restaurant there called the Marisqueira, so I planned to take three cameras with me: the Proud Chrome Six III, a medium format folding camera loaded with Harman Phoenix I film; the Lomography Sprocket Rocket, loaded with a partially exposed roll of Lomography ISO 100 colour film; and an Olympus Pen E-PL3 mirrorless camera fitted with an Industar 69 28mm f2.8 lens from the Chaika II half-frame camera.
These were packed away in my camera bag, but when we got to the beach and I was rummaging around in the bag, I discovered that the circuit bent G6 Thumb Camera had stowed away in the bag, too. Well, I couldn’t let it just sit there, so it became the fourth camera of the day. Of course, in the end it was probably the camera I used the most. Like the Charmera, the G6 is just ridiculously easy to use, and with the addition of the circuit bent sensor the false colours make the images so much fun. If you’re interested, I’ve posted the whole series in an album on my Joomeo if you want to see the rest of the images.

In Oliveira Do Bairro With The Circuit Bent G6 Thumb Camera
It’s been a while since I’ve been out with the G6 Thumb Camera. I must admit, I’ve been having more fun with the failing sensor Canon Powershot A80s. Still, my better half had a hair appointment in Oliveira do Bairro so it was the perfect opportunity to explore the town with the circuit bent G6 Thumb Camera. (For the record, I brought along the two Powershot A80s as well.) If you’re interested, I’ve posted the whole series in an album on my Joomeo if you want to see the rest of the images.
I’m really liking how I circuit bent this camera, it was my first successful attempt, but now I’m ‘champing at the bit’ to do another. I’ve got some pieces of wire this time, to short the sensor connection in a couple of places, and I did actually try to circuit bend a cheap Rollei point and shoot. But I couldn’t access the sensor. So I’m back on the hunt for a ‘generic’ camera. In the meantime, though, the G6 Thumb Camera is behaving admirably.

Hacking Klangquellen
Schüler*innen erfinden und bauen eigene elektrische Instrumente mit Lichtsensoren, Piezotonabnehmern, Circuit Bending (neu verlötete Batteriespielzeuge), Subwoofern, ...
Es entsteht eine große Klangmaschine, die zum Ausprobieren einlädt und jede Menge Punk-Noise produziert!

So yeah, that works pretty well, but it's not exactly what I envisioned. Ideally I want white to stay white, and black to stay black, and everything else to be contrasting rainbows.
But we're going to have to override three different clock pins in the composite color chain to pull that off. I probably have to put this aside for now and get ready for VCF east.
Back on topic. Rainbow CGA project - right. So the clock reset works. This pattern is fixed on the screen with only some crawlies on the edges of the stripes. It's rather uncanny to look at, really.
You can see the clock trying to drift, but being pulled back into alignment every 30 scanlines or so. I haven't wrapped my head around what those numbers mean yet.
It turns out there is one clock the STM32 can generate from a 240MHz IO clock that is an even divisor of CGA scanlines.
The rainbow shimmer on the fence is a promising taste of what a Rainbow CGA should look like.
