Absolut-ly Cool!
April 2nd, 2008
I ran across this video on youtube. Check it out! She types in a melody, and these machines that shoot balls into the air landing on a marimba, along with some wine glasses and percussion, improvise on it!
The really cool thing is you can actually go to the website here and interact with the machines playing the music! You type in your melody (which I did horribly, because I thought I was in “practice” mode, but apparently I wasn’t — I guess you only get a second to “practice”), then you see the thing playing your melody (and its own variations) live, and then they send you a video of it. How cool is that!
