Because I use oil paint so the rags I use to clean my brushes and scrub the canvases are soaked in oil and solvents. Both of which are highly flammable to the point where they can spontaneously combust.

O-scopes do test time/period, as well as frequency. Also amplitude and dB (same thing kind of) to a certain extant. I didn't know older consoles had a clock signal. There are also clock calibrators out there.

It's a painting, that is what you are looking at. My color is heavily dependent upon the natural color of the area I grew up, which is the Mojave Desert in California. A lot of golden browns, yellows, and pinks in the land itself, and a vast range of colors in the sky at sunset and sunrise. My interest lies in the material as material, I don't want to give the impression that this is anything but oil paint you are looking at. The process is also a vital part of it. Putting paint on, scraping it off, painting over and through areas, scrubbing the paint on the canvas with solvent soaked rags, and always looking, feeling how the painting is developing. I'm also intensely interested in creating a place of solitude in the canvas, where one can go and be by ones self.

I don't feel the need to explain my work, honestly. I often don't unless specifically asked, and even then it's not "this painting is about this" so to speak. The viewer is free to think and feel whatever they want about it. Unfortunately for this kind of work, it takes time. You can't just give it a quick glance and get it. You have to spend time with it, which most people don't have to give.

>>719395318
I went to school for painting, it is my entire life and my main concern. If Snuggles were here he could tell you how terrible this is for me. It drives me mad and makes me a rather miserable person most of the time.

That makes sense. That's what most of them are used for anyway.Resistance, voltage, and current are the main things. Capacitance, frequency, and temp usually take a back seat. I hate calibrating those functions when the customer doesn't actually need it.

Indeed. The painter whose work made me a painter said something along the lines of what you said. He said he was disgusted with the kind of work you need to go and get an education to understand. That pure abstraction was like a special club that only an elite few are able to be initiated in. He abandoned abstraction completely and returned to figurative work exclusively for the last twelve years of his life.

>>719395693
It's more an obsession than a passion. Art is a great thing though, it excites me unlike anything else. Even when I am miserable from it, the successful conclusion of a painting thrills me to the point where I am as high as a kite.

What type of SNES do you have? The first boxy model or the second more sleek one? All models of the first version can output S-video and RGB by default, just need the cables. The SNES Jr needs an RGB/S-video amp.

As for the N64 you can tell if your N64 is RGB compatible by the serial number. If it Starts with NUS1 then you most likely have a model that can be modded.

Have you tried philosophy? Albert Camus, the French Absurdist author, play write, and philosopher started as a soccer player, he was considered a very good player that could have gone pro had it not been his development of TB at the age of 23 that ended his career. He once stated in an interview that everything he learned of human nature and morality he learned from playing soccer and in a conversation with Sartre, the French Existentialist, he stated, when asked outright if he had to choose between the theater and soccer (football), "Football without hesitation."

you cut the clock signal and wire in a slightly faster crystal.

Results in more FPS but the music is tied into the clock signal so it also speeds up slightly.

Star Fox is an exception. It has an on board processor, clock and ram that essentially took over the SNES system and used it as a video/controller pass though. All the FX games do.

And yeah, you could over clock other consoles. I've seen over clocks for the game boy, NES and the Sega Genesis.
