HA, theremin and acelerometers. Love it. 

Maybe when I get time I'll take a freerunner up to my friends at Emu and see
what ideas they come up with.

I say just two words. Acelerometers, Theremin. *g*

Should be fun.

True.
But i have to admit, i'm more fascinated by the process of creating sounds
than actually making music by bashing on some 'pad'. :) What things like
elektroplankton, Tenori-On, Kaos Pad can do is impressive.
Technology is way beyond analog sound synthesis. But i like the beauty of
synth patching. I would really like to do some experiments on this while on
a train or so. :)

Cant wait to see what is coming...
