Absolutely. Would I walk across the street to see it? You betcha. I'm sure I wouldn't own a robot inspired album, but I'd give a listen. Just as I took the time to see the Spreckles Pipe Organ in Balboa Park (largest - every Sun, rain or shine - its cool), but I have no pipe organ treasures in my collection. I'd do it 'cause its interesting to me to see different facets of music interpretation.SkeletonLips said:I'm amazed at the human intelligence it took to create the robot. I would never listen to anything completely robot created (whatever that means), because I believe there is no substitute for human emotion, which in my mind plays the biggest part in music. The mathematical part of music just makes it easier for us to follow. This robot, as I see it, is just a tool to explore music in a way that we aren't really able to when playing with other people. I tend to find musical inspiration in just about anything, if not everything. Maybe I'm just crazy.
Yeah, way cool animation. I love that stuff.......there was one a while back, with flying balls and stuff. Yeah, give me some of that..... how'd you like to keep something like that in tune?lwien said:
You said it mom - when I first saw this a few years back I was ripped and watched it over and over and over. Except to me the "fingers" look just like the legs of a snow crab (delicious!).momofthegoons said:lwien, you are on a roll today. I had just gotten totally ripped before logging on. Wow. When it first started, I thought it was sort of creepy looking. Cool, but skeleton like. About 1 1/2 min into it, I realized I was totally mesmerized and the "fingers" had turned birdlike. You've got to wonder what kind of beautiful mind thought this one up. I had never heard of Animusic before. Thanks for sharing.
