Hello form the Detroit Area 'Burbs

Hi, I'm John but my longtime nickname has been "Chow."
Professor of Music (PhD), 8-Bit Hobbyist.
Some 8-bit things I've gotten up to:
Last year, I rescued a C=64, literally out of the trash of a house in my neighborhood (owners had moved), and nursed it back to health. Trying to learn Assembly with it.
Last month, I built a Putnam Electronics PE6502 kit. It's a fun a little device sorely in need of a sound card.
In my spare time, I occasionally make chiptunes on a GameBoy (with mGB, not LSDJ).
Dabbled in NES assembly, but only in an emulator. I really want to make a breadboard computer with an R2a03 (hopefully cannibalized from an otherwise irreparable system), just to be able to write chiptunes on actual NES hardware.
I love doing sound stuff but I'm a total dunce when it comes to Graphics. I look forward to sharing, learning, and teaching with all of you.
