A few people did something like this a few years back. Sadly, Twitter's search system seems to ignore older tweets, so it's hard to find them after a while. The folks on the Supercollider mailing list did a better job of documenting their efforts, and even compiled the best ones into an album of sorts. I'm saying this only as a warning to not count on Twitter to keep track of what you've done. andy On Sep 3, 2012, at 10:19 AM, David Mykytyn wrote:

A good idea!

I don't have a twitter but I made one anyway, it's surprisingly easy to get something good under 140 characters: SawOsc s=>LPF f=>dac;0=>int t;while(120.5::ms=>now){Math.tan(s.last())*400=>s.freq;Math.tan(t)=>f.freq;t++;}//#chucktweets

A cool trick is that you can actually put an advancement of time into the condition for a while loop, it doesn't save a lot of characters but it makes everything look much more compact.

I was just playing around with chuck and I thought it would be fun to have a hashtag of chucktweets on twitter in the spirit of #sctweets that the supercollider guys have, ie self contained compositions that fit into 140 chars. I went ahead and posted a very simple one of my own: https://twitter.com/phreeza/status/242609758404747264

Looking forward to seeing what you guys can come up with.

Cheers,
