I wish you had a picture of the recased Lowrey - that would go great on Organ*Pron!!
Great story, great songs!
The circuit bent SK-1:
A basic circuit bent SK-1 VSTi would have to be a sample player (with a lo-fi recorder if you're adventurous) with all of the SK-1 sounds and then a random appegiator 12 point 'patchbay'(lit up buttons would do fine) that diced the chosen sounds and played them back all screwed up. It would also need to have a bit crusher option (to simulate the body contacts).
A more involved bent SK-1 would include a 24 point patchbay and a sequencer.
Here are some pictures to fire your imagination:
The 'Antithesizer' by Daniel Parks (aka Spunky Toofers). Very much the model I think should be used.
Here's one by Caspar Electronics
Here are some out of control video's
This is actually THREE cheapies (sk1, sk5, vss-30) built into one massive modular interface. Awe inspiring.
