Generate raw WAV output by hooking malloc and read

I'm reminded of some of my favourite C 1-liners for synthesis:

    main(t){
        for(t=0;;t++)
            putchar(t*(((t>>12)|(t>>8))&(63&(t>>4))));
            //putchar(t>>7|t%45)&(t>>8|t%35)&(t>>11|t%20); // try this too!
    }

.. there's a whole world of 1-liners for synthesis out there, and some of them, frankly, are astounding. Sound is such a beautiful way to understand math ..

These are called bytebeat nowadays.

See viznut's (seminal) intro to the genre.

Thanks for the update - bytebeat sounds like something thats a lot more searchable than 'c one-liners that generate sound' .. ;)

Great stuff, eh?
