Tod Machover of MIT’s Media Lab is devoted to extending musical expression to everyone, from virtuosos to amateurs, and in the most diverse forms, from opera to video games.
Here, for example, is the hyperscore from a song titled “Creepy Raindrops ” and composed by 10 year-old Chelsea O’Hara.
Listen to the piece here:
if (FlashDetect.installed) { $(‘flash_embed-dCHBBcldbg’).show(); $(‘quicktime_embed-dCHBBcldbg’).hide(); } else { $(‘quicktime_embed-dCHBBcldbg’).show(); $(‘flash_embed-dCHBBcldbg’).hide(); }
