  • A few more like this guy and Toyota's trumpet-playing robot and junior high school bands around the globe can be mechanized.
  • For me, it's the flutist's (flautist's?) hat that really lifts this above the level of your average anthropomorphic orchestral robot into something really special...
  • That's pretty cool, but the sound of it taking a breath creeps me out. Reminds me of a typewriter.
  • we sure live in fascinating times, don't we?
  • that robot blows.
