I thought this was kind of interesting...

Some scientist once mused that humans would evolve (the word has since been corrected to devolve) into a thumb switch flipping thumb or something less misquoted. I'm sticking with guitar keys and drums.

Many of those instruments are intellectually interesting.

 

But they are mostly similar in approach, being alternate MIDI controllers.

 

Also....the music just sounds like a**.

I love technology and new things but I can't really see any of these as much more than a music toy that would get old fast.

seems these are [as they said in the Remidi and Mogee ads] designed for non-musicians, and as such, IMHO. do not really meet the definition of a 'musical instrument'. This is just the next evolutionary step in the Guitar Hero psychosis...which is not to say that eventually someone won't find a truly musical value for something like the Artiphon or the Ototo [a name which will garner snickers in the Philippines].

Hipster bullcrap.
