“Eye of the tiger” on dot matrix printer
“Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor is recreated with surprising accuracy by a dot matrix printer in this 2013 video by MIDIDesaster. To create the video, MIDIDesaster converted an old dot matrix printer into a MIDI sound generator that can play up to 21 notes at once. MIDIDesaster has posted videos of several other songs, including the theme song from The Benny Hill Show. That particular video also includes an explanation of how the printer was converted.

We traveled to Philadelphia to recreate Rocky’s epic run in real life. The video takes inspiration from the training montages in both Rocky and Rocky II, and the final sequence includes a mob of 100 kids between the ages of 8 and 15 running with Rocky up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
