A band of robotically engineered instruments had taken the stage Southern California concert. Some of the instruments included a hacked guitar that automatically plucks the strings, a snare drum rigged with a brush that automatically circles and a glockenspiel programmed with 13 mallets. These are also connected to a to a stress censored trampoline. When one of the students jumps on the trampolines, the instruments play to the pace of the jumps.
It is pretty interesting how all the instruments are rigged. Also how they move to the pace of the trampoline. Seeing how each of these instruments can make a special noise is better than hearing it just come off a synthesizer.
