Musical hamsters and whatnot. Genius.

Anyway, I was looking at this the other day:

and am mainly in love with the dark-haired one on the far side, and not because she reminds me of a musical cartoon mouse if that’s what you’re thinking (and I suspect it is) and anyway, it’s probably time you stopped going on about that now because THESE ARE HAMSTERS:

and not actually mice, which is pretty obvious if you ask me.

They were brought together by Levy Lorenzo who is clearly a genius and probably looks a bit like this guy
Genuis who is also a genuis on account of inventing whatever it is that he’s holding.

Anyway, Levy made this hamster tray thing in the video above, and connected it up to a Midi thing with wires and sensors and so on, so the hamsters can compose music when they move about. And it’s brilliant, and it’s been stuck in my head since about 2003, which was when it was first invented for the first time.

So anyway, I thought I’d contribute etc… so I merged the two and put them up on youtube.

So that’s me happy.

Welcome to my world.
