No, we eventually plan to use the printers to make music -- bear with
us.

In that case, dot matrix is your best bet:

Rock Lobster and The Beautiful People, covered by robots of the same
user's
creation, are musically cleaner, but this is the best demonstration of the
dot matrix "vocalist."
Then, there is this, of course:

Printer, scanner, and disk drives, all used as instruments.

Hi Ken,
Finally watched some thread links. Those machines kicking it
Radiohead-style w/array of disk drive speakers was nice!
As a side note & more OT, & I hope not too disappointing to you in
some way, I love your little synth piece, monosynthfun2-withb3.
When you posted it, I think you said you'd just knocked it out & felt
you'd played a bit sloppy or s/t, but I've listened a lot & love it.
To me, the piece has such a weirdly dreamy melancholy aspect that I
find it completely compelling & works as solo instrumentation. & w/a
nod to the b3, you managed a great sound & nice touch. I like
everywhere the song goes in the 2 or so minute duration. Wish I could
play 1/10th as well.
Actually, I didn't intend to say more than that that song's a mad
little pleasure for me.

Hi Luke,
Thanks for the link. I think I like the visuals on this more than the
piece. I've never quite fathomed Queen. But after a few listens I'm
starting to like this version.

& Hi James,
Thanks, too. I didn't know of her. Great sound & like the hardcopy
scores born w/the music. I'll check out s/stuff she has on myspace.
