flewellynSo, I was showing my friends on AIM a couple of extremely geeky examples of musical science.
First, the theme from "Super Mario Bros." as played on tesla coils:
And second, the theme from "The Legend of Zelda" on theremin, with synth backing:
To which my friend Magda said the following:
madelinetalks: Cute. I want one of those!
madelinetalks: Are you sure it's not magic?
Eyerleth: Yeah, they're pretty darn cool!
Eyerleth: It's not magic, it's SCIENCE!
madelinetalks: Sufficiently weird science is indistinguishable from magic!
