Yes, the Kickstarter involvement in Animusic's third CD has spread the
word about these fascinating and talented programmers and artists.
Look up their very first release, "Animusic - Pipe Dream 1080p" on
YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xu-A0jqMPd8
In my opinion this is the best they ever did. It has even fooled
people into thinking there is a real instrument there and not just
computer animation. There is more to it than a cartoon, though. As I
understand it (not too well), they have programmed these virtual
instruments so that they can actually play them from their computer
keyboards like real instruments, and not just the one piece that each
plays in their videos. They can mix and match and use them in future
videos playing other music.
