 ### Basic Sierpinski harmony bytebeat t & t >> 8 in as few bytes as possible:
         .globl _start
 _start: inc %ebx             # output fd 1 in %ebx for write()
         inc %edx             # byte count of 1 in %edx for write()
 loop:   inc %eax             # increment t each time through the loop
         push %eax            # save it on the stack
         and %ah, %al         # compute t & t >> 8, our output sample
         push %eax            # store it on the stack for write()
         lea 3(%ebx), %eax    # a three-byte way to set %eax to 4 (__NR_write)
         mov %esp, %ecx       # pass sample pointer to write() (little-endian!)
         int $0x80            # invoke system call
         pop %eax             # discard sample
         pop %eax             # restore t into %eax
         jmp loop             # and repeat

Compile with gcc -m32 -nostdlib and pipe the output to aplay. After stripping, the ELF is 240 bytes; size(1) says it has 18 bytes of code.

for OSX

 brew install sox
 python -c'import sys; [sys.stdout.write(chr(((t*5&t>>7|t*9&t>>4|t*18&t/1024)|((t|7)>>5|(t|4)>>9))%256))for t in xrange(2**18)]' > out.raw; 
 sox -r 8000 -c 1 -t u8 out.raw out.wav;
 open out.wav

OSX one-liner

 python -c'import sys; [sys.stdout.write(chr(((t*5&t>>7|t*9&t>>4|t*18&t/1024)|((t|7)>>5|(t|4)>>9))%256))for t in xrange(2**18)]' | sox -traw -r8000 -b8 -e unsigned-integer - -tcoreaudio

an attempt with luajit[edit]

 local bit = require'bit'
 local ffi = require'ffi'
 
 ffi.cdef[[
   int putchar(int c);
 ]]
 
 local putc = ffi.C.putchar
 local rsh  = bit.rshift
 local lsh  = bit.lshift
 local band = bit.band
 local bor  = bit.bor
 local bxor = bit.bxor
 
 for t=0, math.huge do
   putc( band(t, rsh(t, 8)) )
 end

run it on osx:

 luajit 8bit.lua | sox -r 8000 -c 1 -t u8 - -d

busybox awk[edit]

gawk might also work. other awks lack bitshift operations. please add below if you test it.

put this into your /dev/dsp pipe and smoke it.

   #!/bin/busybox awk -f 
   BEGIN{
      for (;;t++){
         printf("%c",and(t, rshift(t, 8)));
      }
   }

or @ your shell prompt

   seq 11111111 | busybox awk '{printf("%c",and($1,rshift($1,8)))}' > /dev/dsp
