Play songs with your computer monitor and am radio
tempest_for_eliza pixelclock x 1000000 HDisplay VDisplay HTotal radio frequency music file
This program displays patterns on a computer monitor that can produce musical tones on AM radios tuned to the proper frequency.
pixelclock x 1000000, HDisplay, VDisplay, and HTotal all should be the same each time for your monitor. Use the xvidtune(1) application to determine these values.
As the name suggests, for the pixelclock parameter multiply the result given by xvidtune(1) by 1000000.
A usual sensible value for radio frequency is 10000000, or 10Mhz.

The original idea for tempest_for_eliza was taken from Pekka Riikonen, who wrote the original tempest-AM\[en]0.9 application. tempest_for_eliza was written by Erik Thiele.
