- To run John & Rob's Multimedia Kaleidoscope requires a great deal of
- multimedia horsepower. In addition to a fast machine, a ProAudio 16,
- you should certainly have a fast VGA card. Below is a list of the
- hardware requirements to run the Kaleidoscope.
-
- With DrumPak (8 channel 16 bit digital percussions):
-
- DOS 5.0 with 560k+ free memory.
- EMS memory manager with 500k free EMS memory.
- 486 25mhz or faster.
- 386 40mhz or faster.
- Fast VGA card.
- ProAudio Spectrum 16 sound card.
-
- Without DrumPak:
-
- Will run on slower 386 machines. Doesn't need as much DOS
- memory and EMS.
-
- Type 'JROB' to run the Kaleidoscope.
-
-
- John & Rob's Multimedia Kaleidoscope is interactive art. It
- incorporates all of the aspects of multimedia in an enganging
- interactive environment. The Kaleidoscope is meant to be an active
- experience. You control the visual and audio effects, and in this
- fashion are an active participant in this work of art. Be sure to go to
- the help screen ('H') and discover all of the keys to controlling the
- Kaliedoscope's many visual effects.
-
- Every time you bring up the Kaleidoscope it represents a new experience.
- Be sure to use the different texture map modes ('T') and different
- mirror modes ('M'). There is no limit to the number or variety of
- visual and audio effects you can create with the Kaleidoscope.
-
- The Multimedia Kaleidoscope was created by computer game author John W.
- Ratcliff (688 Attack Sub) and game musician Rob Wallace (The Miracle
- Piano System). We are proud of what we have been able to achieve. If
- you enjoy the Kaleidoscope and would like to receive a full version,
- with music and sound effects for all six Realms, plus an audio-tape
- production of the original Kaleidoscope sound track (as performed on the
- Roland Sound Canvas)
-
- send a $40 check, payable to 'Wallace Music & Sound' to:
-
- Multimedia Kaleidoscope
- Wallace Music & Sound
- 6210 West Pershing Ave.
- Glendale, AZ 85304
-
- The Kaleidoscope will come on 2 high density 3 1/2" MS-DOS diskettes.
