Nice find, Hazel. :D Now we only need the talents to get something sensible out of it! BBC didn't succeed in finding any, I think. :P Eigenharp. I like the name. B) The spell checker haven't learned it yet.

In the video they say "it". So how is the name pronounced? Is a dje or a sharp g sound?

Well that's different, but not in a bad way.

Had to comb through the text because for some reason the BBC UK is so anal about letting outside countries stream their videos.

I'm a musician and that instrument from the looks of it is interesting, but I'd probably never bother with it.

It's not been YouTubed yet but there's a few other videos about it: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_quer..._type=&aq=f

From £3,950 (inc vat) Eigenharp's homepage says: http://www.eigenlabs.com/

It's a strange thought that modern music instruments can get malware or get hacked. In theory at least...
