My friends and number one link source over at Generator.x led me to this clever little MIDI project - which is controlled by hamsters. That’s right! They’re not just for biting through your thumbnail anymore! Something tells me that my colleagues over at Industrial Brand will be making an after-holiday shopping trip to the local pet shop and Radio Shack.




I like the idea of this, but the practical problems with a bunch of hamsters in narrow plastic tracks mean this is a one-off deal, and not exactly something you’d put in your living room.




What about the same thing, with fish? The ever-popular Betta Splendens would seem to me to be a perfect choice. And, they’re pretty to watch. Of course, I demand 10% of the profits.
