Q: have people attempted to translate this into Tidal Cycles, or Strudel JS? (Pattern playing of music by notation) Edit: AI says doing the translation would be hard, though doable. https://claude.ai/share/65c16d60-5d27-496b-96a7-40959e95ac62 https://claude.ai/share/65c16d60-5d27-496b-96a7-40959e95ac62 Edit 2: here is an AI translation of some of the notes, what Claude claims as the main melody: https://strudel.cc/#Ci8vIFdpemJhbGwgIklucHV0IE5hbWUiIC0gbWFpbiBtZWxvZHkgKGNoYW5uZWwgMCkKLy8gT3JpZ2luYWw6IE1hcnRpbiBHYWx3YXksIDE5ODcuIE5vdGUgaW5kaWNlcyBmcm9tIEM2NCBTSUQgYXNtCi8vIHRyYW5zbGF0ZWQgYXMgTUlESSA9IGluZGV4ICsgMTIuCgpzZXRjcHMoMTQwLzYwLzQpCgokOiBub3RlKGA8CiAgW2E0IH4gfiBhNF0gW2c0IH4gfiBnNF0gW2YjNCB%2BIH4gfl0KICBbfiB%2BIH4gYjRdIFtiNCBiNCBiNCB%2BXSBbYjQgfiBiNCB%2BXQogIFtkNSBkNSBkNSBkNV0gW2Q1IGQ1IGY1IGQ1XSBbYzUgZDUgYzUgZzRdCiAgW2E0IH4gfiBhNF0gW2c0IGc0IH4gfl0gW2YjNCB%2BIGE0IH5dCiAgW2c0IH4gfiB%2BXQo%2BYCkKICAucygic3F1YXJlIikKICAuYXR0YWNrKC4wMDUpLmRlY2F5KC4wOCkuc3VzdGFpbiguNCkucmVsZWFzZSguMSkKICAubHBmKDIyMDApLmxwcSgzKQogIC5nYWluKC42KQoKLy8gQ2hhbm5lbCAxOiB0aGUgaGlnaCBCNSBjaGltZSB0aGF0IHB1bmN0dWF0ZXMgdGhyb3VnaG91dAokOiBub3RlKCJiNSB%2BIH4gfiB%2BIH4gYjUgfiIuZmFzdCgyKSkKICAucygidHJpYW5nbGUiKQogIC5hdHRhY2soLjAwMSkuZGVjYXkoLjA0KS5zdXN0YWluKDApLnJlbGVhc2UoLjA1KQogIC5nYWluKC4zKQoKLy8gQ2hhbm5lbCAyOiBiYXNzIGxpbmUgLSByb290IG1vdGlvbiBEIC0gQSAtIEcgLSBECiQ6IG5vdGUoIjxkMyBhMiBnMiBkMz4iKQogIC5zKCJzYXd0b290aCIpCiAgLmxwZig4MDApLmxwcSgyKQogIC5hdHRhY2soLjAwNSkuZGVjYXkoLjIpLnN1c3RhaW4oLjYpLnJlbGVhc2UoLjEpCiAgLmdhaW4oLjUpCg%3D%3D https://strudel.cc/#Ci8vIFdpemJhbGwgIklucHV0IE5hbWUiIC0gbWFp... .. uh ...

That sounds nothing like any of the Wizball or Game Over tracks, I'm afraid.

  Thanks for that. The Laboratory Background riff sounds a lot like versalife[0] [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF09vGckSAc&list=PLKkxnBwFOJGKYQo3EGYjE4FhJUbBq_2U5&index=57 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF09vGckSAc&list=PLKkxnBwFOJ...

    Hah! I never noticed that, but you're right! For those interested in how the Wizball soundtrack should sound, the best place to go is DeepSID: https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/G/Galway_Martin/Wizball.sid https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/G/Galway_Marti...

I had to give it a try. Claude, the ole cheater, recognized what the file was, downloaded the psid from the web, found a wasm sid player and built a website around it: https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/df6cdcae-08dc-452b-ba19-ffae2d6546f6 https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/df6cdcae-08dc-452b-ba19-f... https://claude.ai/share/4dd36c16-bc62-445a-b423-ad4637f06432 https://claude.ai/share/4dd36c16-bc62-445a-b423-ad4637f06432 GPT-5.5 built a lot of python scripts to extract the music data. Strudel implementation failed, but I then asked it to build a website: https://ubiquitous-vacherin-8e7993.netlify.app/ https://ubiquitous-vacherin-8e7993.netlify.app/ This is a translation of the music into javascript based on the assembler source. Really impressive on both accounts. Some iterations were requied for both.
