An Amiga Soundtracker Mod / PDF / CSV Polyglot File [pdf]

Open it in your browser (pdf.js), Adobe Acrobat, Okular, mpv, VLC, Microsoft Excel, and more.

In plain words

This file is a creative polyglot that functions simultaneously as an Amiga Soundtracker mod, a PDF document, a CSV spreadsheet, and other formats. It can be opened across multiple applications including web browsers using pdf.js, Adobe Acrobat, Okular, media players like mpv and VLC, and Microsoft Excel. The file demonstrates how binary data can be structured to satisfy the specifications of entirely different file formats at once, making it a technical curiosity for those interested in file format engineering and retrocomputing.

  • Eigendrum - Draw any shape and hear what it sounds like as a drum▲243

    Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
