About

A dystopian drone icecast stream with micropower simulcast on 89.3 FM powered by Mozzi and a Teensy 3.1 microcontroller by PJRC. The project is based on an original by Tod Kurt (@todbot@mastodon.social). See Tod's mozzi experiments page at https://github.com/todbot/mozzi_experiments.

The current setup uses a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, a Sabrent USB sound adapter, and B.U.T.T. (Broadcast Using This Tool - https://danielnoethen.de/butt/) to stream to the Lurk.org Icecast server. The Teensy output is on pin A14/DAC, which connects to the audio in.
