    Default Automated Guitars(s)?...or some such thing

    This probably is woodwork, but I couldn't figure which forum to post it to.

    Did a bit of googling and it is computer generated graphics (CGI), not real at all.

    There are actually automated guitars and even automated orchestras. Check out Pat Metheny's orchestrion project.

    I saw a pretty cool guitar playing robot at Expo 88 at the Japanese Pavilion. There is a bit of info and a photo on the net, but not realy much about it around
    The other day I described to my daughter how to find something in the garage by saying "It's right near my big saw". A few minutes later she came back to ask: "Do you mean the black one, the green one, or the blue one?".
