If you read the entire article (go all the way to the bottom) it says it's animation. Even if it isn't real it's very cool and worth watching.

All the way to the bottom??????

This is in big letters, right at the top:


Amazing Music Machine

Emailed video of an 'amazing music machine' allegedly manufactured out of farm equipment parts at the University of Iowa


Description: Viral video
Circulating since: Nov. 2006 (this version)
Status: Caption is false

Allegedly, viral video, false, urbanlegends.com... need more cues?

I missed that, anyways at the bottom it spells is out pretty clearly:


Comments: False. The video is amazing, no question, but the "fantastic machine" depicted therein wasn't built out of farm equipment parts at the University of Iowa. It's an example, rather, of the incredible 3D computer animation created by Wayne Lytle and his team at Animusic (http://urbanlegends.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http://www.animusic.com/) in Austin, Texas. No such machine exists in the real world.

Nor, for the record, is there a "Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory," a "Sharon Wick School of Engineering," nor a "Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall" at the University of Iowa. The caption accompanying the video in emails circulating since November 2006 is entirely fictitious, authored by an anonymous prankster.

The famous Las Vegas magician, Lance Burton, shows this before his show starts at the Monte Carlo.

My son and I saw it again earlier this month, and apparently some folks were tired of seeing it, with comments like, "Oh no, not this again!" and "You're kidding, right? This is old."

Still there were an equal number of amazed patrons who watched in awe.

I mean, the video is cool and the music is interesting but that's not the point :)

I can’t stand (About) All I keep getting is click, click, click, click, click!:banghead: The video was slow because of all the clicking!:barf: I turned it off after 20 seconds.

I’ll go to youtube where the page isn’t infected by all this clicking every 2 seconds! :banghead:

ATI used to include a program with their video cards that would render this live as you watched it. It was called something like Pipe Dream Demo iirc.

Pretty cool, but definitely virtual....
