This is why I love the League of Electronic Musical Urban Robots

LEMUR, Friday night:
This month's show features Simon Morris on his newly constructed SensorSkate, a skateboard custom-wired with sensors and programmed to control the LEMUR robots. Dafna Naphtali has been brewing up a soundstorm of dynamically controlled algorithmic improvisation and live audio processing, using Wiimotes and vocal cues to trigger and manipulate the bots. Andrew Schneider will be doing musical theater, presenting a dance number and interfacing his movements with the robots via custom-built wearable controllers. This promises to be an exotic, entertaining evening.
