Click here to view the embedded video. This Reactable demo video sure looks pretty - but the functionality shown should be familiar to longtime Synthtopia readers. I have to ask the same thing I asked about using the iPhone as a Lemur - is this just eye candy? Reactable is a collaborative electronic musical instrument with a tangible interface based on a table, and inspired by modular synthesizers of the sixties. It was developed by ...

When that dreadful Icelandic singer Bjork made her “Tibet, Tibet” protest at her Shanghai concert earlier this year, Chinese officialdom was relatively restrained. Vice Minister of Culture Zhou Heping noted that the fey, shrieking one had “caused dissatisfaction among the broader Chinese audience” (believe me, they're not the only ones) but stressed that it was an isolated case that wouldn't “affect China inviting other countries' artists from coming to perform.” This is treating a woman ...

If ever there was a grim picture of the current financial clusterfuck, it's the once artsy (Björk! sigur rós!), hip, and rich island nation wonderland of Iceland, which fell into cataclysmic economic failure earlier this month. And it happened pretty much overnight. Since the three major banks collapsed under crippling debt and a plummeting currency, job loss has been widespread—the architecture industry, for example, has seen some 75% of its work force laid off in ...

Crazy talented musician (and notoriously crazy dresser) Bjork has been fighting to save the environment before it was cool to do so. It comes as no surprise that her latest single, Nattura, is all about doing just that. In an interview with AP, Bjork spoke of what motivated her to write Nattura. "I think I'm just one of many people who have stood up and spoken out. But I have to do it. I will ...

It's only been a few weeks, but tonight's your last chance to catch the Hoodies, Wheelies & Movies series, which wraps up with the late-80's classic Rad. More info on Facebook. From Gothamist: Tonight our very own Billy Parker closes the curtains on his Hoodies, Wheelies & Movies series with a screening of Rad. The 1986 BMX movie might not be a must-see for some, but it's a classic nonetheless (watch the original movie trailer ...

Just last month we were reporting "Seagate to begin to switch to SSD" and now company CEO Bill Watkins has said that that's not quite the truth. Seagate will indeed be launching an enterprise-level SSD in 2009, but will not enter the "mobile SSD" market. Whyever not? Because there's no money to be made there: "Right now if you look at it whether it's Micron or Samsung or SanDisk - they're selling at a loss. ...

Sure, you could ask an engineer or designer how an old TV works. But then you'd get a boring, predictable and correct answer. Who wants that? Not me, that's for sure. I'd much rather listen to Bjork tell me exactly what's going on inside a TV, because you're guaranteed to get a much more fantastical and entertaining answer. Is it accurate? Hell no. But is it whimsical to the point of insanity? Yes, yes it ...

Professional weirdo* Bjork opens up a CRT television and attempts to explain how it works in this video that appears to be from days of weirdo yore. She offers incalculably valuable technical advice that we can all apply to our daily lives: "You shouldn't let poets lie to you." [via Geeksugar] * Not that there's anything wrong with that. (Weirdo.)

There’s something special about duets with male and female voices. The contrast of sounds is pleasing to my ears. I especially like the ones where the vocalists are having a conversation through song - a musical he said/she said. Below are 20 of my favorite boy/girl duets, listed in chronological order. Well, at least they’re my favorites as of today.
