Yeah that piano is nice. That will pass into legend along with the sandpaper, tank, bank, sleep deprivation etc ...

"Aphex Twin, who once swang a remote controlled piano on a pendulum at the barbican ...."

the spectral software is interesting. you can supposedly recreate any sound with just sine waves. if he had a group of like one hundred flutists he could do live a spectral performance

(since flutes are very close to sine waves)...prbably more complicated to make complex sounds. but you could make saw waves and stuff.

Hmmm, that piano-pendulum piece has got me longing for a proper new Aphex Twin album. I'm thinking about a "build your own home pendulum-piano-piece" btw.

you think the pitch shifting is really all from the doppler effect? Also, any formal musicians know if the piano is in standard tuning?

i bet sp now feels silly about his live show.

The shifting weight of the piano affects the tension of the strings.
