The concept is similar to a wooden tongue drum. When a tongue is quickly and lightly struck with the finger or mallet, it vibrates creating sound waves. Playing a HAPI is similar to playing the Hang Drum, though the similarities end there, as it is a totally different type of musical instrument. By changing the shape and length of the tongue, optimal vibration and perfect tone is achieved. By arranging the notes in a unique way each note, when struck, excites surrounding notes that are musically compatible with it. This adds to the harmonic spectrum of the tone. Rather than just one tone it can now create a spectrum of supporting sound for each note. The tone is similar to singing bowls or musical bells which create multiple harmonic overtones. The body of the drum acts as a resonating chamber adding depth to the note. An opening port in the bottom of the drum serves three functions. The bottom hole allows the sound to escape and increases the volume. It releases the tone from the body so that the notes do not overlap each other too much. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/album-rewievs/42959-hapi-drum-The concept is similar to a wooden tongue drum.

DUBMAGE BRAIN is a self-produced solo dub music project that was initiated in mid-2010. This music offers a personal and unique atmosphere, resulting from a mix of strong rhythms, bass-line, melodies, vocal samples and the abuse of effects like reverbs and delays. There are tracks that go from classical to more experimental sounds, creating a subliminal atmosphere that is transporting. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/dub/42957-dubmage-brain-2DUBMAGE BRAIN is a self-produced solo dub music project that was initiated in... more

The piece explains how marijuana is inspiring chefs and restaurants to create a new kind of cuisine, making its claim after interviewing "a handful of chefs [who] are unabashedly open about marijuana's role in their creative and recreational lives and its effect on their restaurants.
Pot does at least two things to the restaurant experience: It inspires creativity in the kitchen, and it stimulates the appetite for a certain kind of food. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/bizzareweird/370-marijuana-cuisineThe piece explains how marijuana is inspiring chefs and restaurants to create a new... more

We were fighting what was an obvious, difficult, never-ending and probably impossible struggle to shoot arrows at this oncoming juggernaut of what was a corporate machine that was going to sweep us away and turn this whole culture into nothing more than a Karaoke playground. And once you understand that, you understand there’s a balance: there’s a Karaoke culture and there’s an authentic culture. The authentic culture is probably not very big right now. If you look around here and try to find something authentic, it’s like looking for a ruby in a field of tin – impossible to find! http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/section-table/312-malcolm-mclaren-about-the-renaissance-of-the-romantics-the-punk-aesthetic-and-the-era-of-bullshit-interviewsWe were fighting what was an obvious, difficult, never-ending and probably impossible... more

Ever wanted to create your own game? Want to know how you could make the next biggest thing since Pong? Well there is a way!
Most people are not aware of the free tools that they can use to do this and how simple it can actually be to start your mission to become a top game designer. Some people search the internet constantly, and try and find out how they can get their creative juices flowing without having to spend time learning a programming language.
Scratch is a program that has been produced by the nice people at the MIT Media Lab. You can download it for Mac OS or Windows (sorry Linux) which you can then use to create your own games and learn some of the attributes it takes to be a programmer. This is a great introduction to programming for anyone who has never done any programming before. Also one of the great things about it is that once you create your game, you can upload it to the website and share it with the Scratch community. It works both ways so you can download other peoples games and edit them in scratch to your hearts content.
The program was created for anyone over 8 and it is a great start for anyone thinking about starting to create their own games for fun or maybe having a look whether programming is for them and want to go further.
If you do have a go at Scratch and think to yourself you want to take it the next step further and learn a programming language you are now faced with one major problem. What language to learn?
Now going down this free root one of the nice languages to learn would be Java. Java offer a nice range of tools to ease in new programmers to their language. Java have there own range of programs where you can learn the ins and outs of it all as well as giving you the support you need all along the way. Java is already an established language which many people program in which is why you should to.

Learning a new programming language can seem daunting and if you do want to start it will take a lot of time and dedication to finish. Don't worry though if you don't want to go down that root. Scratch is a great program to create your own games and if you do enjoy it then stick with that and show off your own games on their site.
There has never been a better time to create games with all the ways you can now easily get your games onto on-line stores for people to download. So if you do make the next best idea since Plants vs Zombies or World of Goo (http://current.com/items/90457638_about-to-buy-a-console-game-during-a-recession-think-again.htm) you may actually make some money.
