The more I’ve thought about it, the more I like the party-horn interface.

From a text-generation standpoint, I’m curious about the results that would happen when tying this into predictive-completion (like you see on mobile devices).

Or adapted as a musical input device – the length of the party-horn transforms into notes; since it’s digital pick a Western or non-Western scale, microtonal scale, or whathaveyou.

Looks like a fun device for reals.

Came across it last night, couldn’t figure out how to cross post and gave up after like 30 seconds. (I was on my phone, give me a break)
So I reposted it there. :smile:
