if you know anything technical about music, you're about to start drooling so put a towel in your lap and proceed forth. the 'react table' is like something out of a sci-fi fantasy. it is pretty much proof-positive that if something can be imagined, it will one day come to be.. if you are a dj or know anything about djing, this device is basically like being inside Ableton. for those of you who have never 'seen' music in its wave-pattern form, this is gonna knock your socks off....

Aye they look well cool. I just bought the reactable app for the iphone the other day, tbh I feel a bit ripped off lol It was only £5.99 too but I probably havent gave it enough time and ive not loaded any of my own samples into it yet, definately is a different way of working things but I keep going back to nanosync for my iphone its a sequencer with drum pads and synths, its amazing I just got the iphone, I can make tunes when walking about, im really quite astounded as to what these smarphones can do, I had no idea!   So far the raectable app seems quite gimmiky to me, and im not sure how I could transfer things from my iphone to my computer that could actually be used, apart from just recording wavs tho definately interesting! The real one costs £20000 im sure so think ill stick with my pirated copy of ableton

Oh yeah, I've just seen last week a machine looking similar though a bit simpler to play with in a artistic communauty. It does look alien to us ! Smell like tea n,n spirit !
Toke the toke, and walk the walk !

Thanks antrocles. I also would have loved to see the performance live. I keep wondering whether the part where it rains and then the tower is covered with vines would seem just as real if I was there, not to mention the rest of the performance.
