Merlin Mann writes about the Cool Buddha Machine from FM3. The only thing cooler is, there are now nine different “Virtual Buddha Machines” available on Zencast.TV, each machine available in 4 different flavored shells.
Here is a sampler of all of the VBM’s Available on Zencast.TV:
(Select Guide in the player to change Machine. Select Right arrow to change colors)
Okay, so what is a “VBM” and what are they good for? Well let’s just say for example your at work, stressed out and you want to throw a little chill ambient drone down. You head on over to Zencast.TV, pull up a Virtual Buddha Machine in the mini window player, and you got yourself a stress free drone zone. Pull up a few of these VBMs and you got an all out “Virtual Buddha Boxing” session.
Tip:
To get at the Virtual Buddha Machines, You have to scroll to the bottom of the Channel Guide on Zencast.TV player.
Or if you would like you can always go “Non-Virtual” with your Buddha Machine.

http://home.golden.net/~samu/Ears/EarFrame.html has at the bottom of the page, some, uhm, well, melodies, i made translating text strings to MIDI, in one case using text from a version of The Prajna Paramita Sutra, for instance.
I recently made a version of Great Compassion Mantra mixed with the Virtual Buddha Machine loops. It is at home.golden.net/~samu/Buddha machine & GCM mix.mov
I hope those urls get through. I am more than happy to share these with anyone interested.
