But the sounds being made here could easily accompany the operation of an ansible

The intensity of the bald Theramin player is amazing. To be able to control sound in the air, just with a gesture.

Call me an old cynic, but I feel there’s a suspicious lack of cables for my liking…

‘rabbit and wolf’? seriously?

have some respect, that series of kids cartoons had the best damn selection of music for it’s era. Everything from Soviet classics like Trava u doma to Dutch disco tracks by Digital Emotion.

I’ve watched tons of “Nu, Pogodi” and love its music and animation. I’ve never heard it called “rabbit and wolf” before, which is why I posted the Wikipedia link to it.
