It's amazing they were able to decode the notations into something that can create real music.
According to wiki (?) lyres date back to 2500 BCE.
Gives a new meaning to guitars.

If you like to listen to old music (although not by far as old as the one you refer to) played by recognized old music ensembles, listen to l'Arpeggiata and Vincenzo Capezzuto: Wondrous Machine[^]. Played at the sound level of heavy rock, it becomes heavy rock 
The lyrics is a praise of the machine, dating back to 1692, 72 years before James Watt made a breakthrough with his steam engine. Good old Henry (and his lyrics companion Nicholas Brady) was definitely ahead of their time!

I do. It gives a sense of placement with our species, if that makes sense.
Will totally check that out that link in a bit. Thanks.

Looks pretty flakey to me - there is no data redundancy built in.

We were finally moving to a SoC with 128 kB of flash and 16 kB of RAM (starting from 64 / 6) and now they want to cut costs moving back to a 64 / 8.
I really really wanted to see what we could do with that ocean of RAM...

128k, that doesn't sound like enough space to hold the Google starting page?

It is enough to run Wizardy 1 and Zork 1 though.

In the early 1980s, the 8-bit Commodore PET 2001 could play a decent game of chess with 8K of RAM (no flash!) for both code and data.
It was very slow, but it worked!

Slow is cool, but when you have 125 microseconds to perform 3 tridimensional transforms in order to compute the timings of six MOSFETs, keep communication, manage the high level functionalities and the diagnostic services... you can't be slow

You work with microseconds ?!

Yes, directly in Interrupt Service Routines to keep an electric motor running at defined RPM and torque. Depending on the manifacturer you can have 4k or 8k samples per second in order to apply the Park and the Clarke transformations (and to run the PI observer). Such transformations are quite heavy since they are 3D geometrical tranforms in the Complex numbers.

This is where assembler kicks in.
I think I would enjoy your job.

We actually don't need it here, SoCs are well designed and have 1 cpu-cycle RAM access that really helps, and the optimizer is good.
I had to turn to Assembler on an Intel system to perform high speed image manipulations (i.e. rotating an image 90 degrees in any direction with any mirroring in microseconds, normalizing the gray levels...). SIMD instructions are fun, even if SSE are asinine sometimes.
