The reactable, is a multi-user electronic music instrument with a tabletop tangible user interface. Several simultaneous performers share complete control over the instrument by moving physical objects on a luminous table surface. By moving and relating these objects, representing components of a classic modular synthesizer, users can create complex and dynamic sonic topologies, with generators, filters and modulators, in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer or graspable flow-controlled programming language.

This instrument is being developed by a team of digital luthiers (Sergi Jordà, Martin Kaltenbrunner, Günter Geiger and Marcos Alonso), at the Music Technology Group within the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, Spain.

According to a friend at work:

“That’s a nasty digital simulation of analogue synthesis! (Easy to do with an overhead tracking and a MAXMSP or SuperCollider patch )”

And he gives us these links to prove his point:

“Here’s Carsten Nicolai of Raster Noton keepin’ it real:”

We are living in end times. Baby Jesus is going to return soon, and all the Christians are gong to get sucked up to heaven. Non-believers will be left behind.

If you’re worried this might include you, you’d better read the Post-rapture Survival Guide, “If you receive this manual before the rapture … start storing up food and living supplies and put them into hiding in some remote and difficult to access area. You should include weaponry to defend yourself and medical supplies as part of your living supplies.”

If reading isn’t your strong point, watch some of these videos for further information.

And remember: evil sinners will burn in hell forever…

I was emailed a link to this viral video by a friend. Hilarious tune. Probably NSFW unless you work somewhere like I do.

This was also being discussed on Metafilter the other day, and it seems that it’s a parody.

Donnie Davies has another page Love Gods Way, where he promotes C.H.O.P.S. or “changing homos into ordinary peoples”. There’s also a list of bands that have teh gay & etc, and he seems to like quoting Oscar Wilde for some reason.

Not that I haven’t heard this kind of crap come from people who really believe it…

This guy went around the world and filmed himself in various locations, dancing!! Very good.
