    it would be cool if the violin playing robot could learn new songs by listening and analysing.
  2. Daryl Says:
    the sony robots should dance to music played by the toyota robots
  3. Alfreda Says:
    Nah... Japanese cars are safer and more fuel effecient. Besides, global Japanese car sales outnumber America's.
  4. Seana Says:
    As long as the spirit of what I said gets across I'm happy.
  5. Alejandra Says:
    Except Stradivarius was solely an instrument crafter and never composed. At least you got the other two right.
  6. Jannae Says:
    EEEVAH!

    My roommate is a pharmacy tech and doesn't know crap about electronics. She's Asian. Are you SURE asians are only good at electronics. Like, how much research had you done before you made that statement. Just asking. Inquiring minds would like to know.
  8. ANGHARAT Says:
    I saw a nicer way more advanced robot at the ford stand at the L.A autoshow like 5 years ago....
  9. Izaan Says:
    No way..asians are good only on electronics, and I guess that's what toyota should ONLY do.
  10. Lucy Says:
    maybe more lazy, but wayyyyy more creative and able to express that more thus coming up with crazier and better/faster technology.
  11. VALDEMAR Says:
    I agree..
  12. Cherri Says:
    WOW!

    Composition can be anything. Sure not everyone can be a stravinsky or a stradivarious or bach, but at least they are trying to do something new. Minimalism is a form of experimental composition, taking advantage of stacking many small random looping noises on top of each other to make a series of rythmic overtones. This style is hit or miss. Just because someone "misses" doesn't mean its nt music. Music is an art, but you can't be upity about it. It may sound awful to some, but amazing to others
  14. Atepa Says:
    I disagree "Jiffy13", Composition in my mind isn't a jumble of "nonsense". I could go and write a whole bunch of random notes and it wouldn't be a composition in my own mind. Because there has to be passion and feeling behind something in order for it, in my mind, to be regarded as a composition. If it sounds awful, then surely it cannot count as music rather it would be random noise. Music is an art.

    These advanced robots and other futuristic technologies will eventually make almost all of the humans become lazy. XP
  16. Tahbert Says:
    i don't mind the wheel chair things but the violinist??? a robot will never be as good as a human violinist, the robot may get the notes correct but it will never have the passion for it as a human will. we don't need these things it will end up costing people their jobs as maids and such believe it or not but some people don't mind being a cleaner not everyone wants to work in an office.
  17. Annalisa Says:
    drivers will me less likely to have an accident???? you have this annoying robot face talkin to you and telling you how to drive while your driving,, mmmm yeah I think that will cause more accidents than prevents them lol. people dont need more distractions they need less! espesally R2D2 staring at you! have you ever heard of computer malfuntion ? swerv left ... WTF.. crash lol.
  18. Valere Says:
    yea America buys many things from china and Sony is acutally a japanesse brand and they made kewl robots also :D
  19. Aarshiya Says:
    American car companies are a shame...
  20. ANDRASTE Says:
    Actually, research before you post, a robot has composed... It's all minimalistic nonsense, and sounds like shit, but it was a composition free from most human influence.
  21. KIERAN Says:
