Inferior humanoid guitarists with only 10 fingers, you are officially on notice!

http://www.cnn.com/2014/0...t/index.html?hpt=hp_t3

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

What's the big deal?
 
How much different is it from a player-harpsichord? Wait, I know... the harpsichord has 3 times as many fingers. :-)
 
 
 
 
I thought the quote about proving the idea wrong, that deeply emotional music can only be made by human's first hand, was funny... especially after listening to the deeply unemotional music that was in the accompanying video.
 
I watched a movie call "A Late Quartet" recently. I thought it did a good job presenting some ideas about how emotions and music intertwine.

The first couple of minutes or so were pleasantly wistful to my ears. Then it got all unnecessary.

I think you missed it - they're designed to be performers

I like that caption ... what will the future bring to electronic music!
 
It's weird, and off the charts but then only a handful of folks here have heard of Emily! She doesn't have 78 fingers and she doesn't need them!
 
All in all, it is fun and clever and such, but thinking that is the future of electronic music, pretty much tells you these folks have never heard Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Riuychi Sakamoto or Vangelis! And so many others that make that thing look stupid and cheap!

As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!
