+Vintage Platform Audio Emulation Library
+----------------------------------------
+
+### Goal
+Create a library with objects that emulate the hardware from
+old hardware like the atari 2600, NES, and others.
+
+### Details
+There are a lot of resources online for emulating old
+hardware. Purr Data would benefit by having a library
+that provides a consistent interface for objects that
+take input into an emulation of a piece of hardware and
+output one or more audio signals.
+
+If possible, it would be beneficial if most of the interface
+could be built as a set of abstractions. That way more
+developers would be able to understand and improve the library.
+
+There is a TIA chip emulator written in C in externals/mmonoplayer
+that can be used as a starting point.
+
+### Difficulty: Moderate.
+
+### Languages
+Pd (Purr Data is a fork of the software Pure Data-- the visual language itself
+is usually referred to as Pd.) Also, C.
