  1. In other news... on Japan Considering Moon Base, Shuttle Projects · · Score: 2, Funny

    In other news, the JAXA robotic space probe seems to have taken great interest in the American flag on the moon. Aparently the Japanese have figured out how to use spray paint effectivly in space...

  2. Re:So What? on Musical Robots Invade Juilliard · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I though of that. Yes, robots are awesome. But they're even more awesome when they do something useful. Also, it would scare me if there weren't any musical nerds on slashdot.

  3. So What? on Musical Robots Invade Juilliard · · Score: 1

    As a musician, I'm not very impressed. This is only slightly better than a stereo system, in that it gives you the real acoustics of the instrument. But what would you be more willing to pay to see? An Eric Clapton show or a robot show? Who would you want playing on your recording? A robot or someone who actually has emotion that they can express through music. So what, I say. Its only someone who played with their Mindstorm set long enough to make it work.

  4. Re:Keyboard? on Korg's New Keyboard Powered by Linux · · Score: 1

    Not really. Not all *music* keyboards are technically synthesizers.

  5. Re:Keyboard? on Korg's New Keyboard Powered by Linux · · Score: 1

    Yep, keyword there was KORG. But I forgive you.

  6. good stuff on Lunar Helium 3 Could Meet Earth's Energy Demands · · Score: 1

    yes, He-3 does seem to be a useful substance. Some of us freshmen students at Thomas Jefferson Sci & Tech are doing a lunar project, and my particular area of interest was with He-3. A good article concerning He-3 was in the October '04 Popular Mechanics magazine.
