Cool new stuff

I'm always on the prowl for cool new stuff, and the Eigenharp certainly fits the bill. It takes the idea of a composite instrument and takes it to a new level (the range of sounds seems limitless) - I especially like that sensors in the mouthpiece are sensitive enough to pick up tonguing which can then be translated into articulations on any instrument. (And the Apple geek in me loves that it only runs on Macs).

How much fun would it be to play around with one? Anyone out there have one and wanna lend it to me (hey, a girl can dream...)?

Check out this demo:
