Firstly thanks for taking the time to comment, even if you can’t provide a real name or email address – perhaps you’re scared of a response when you write unconstructive criticism?

I’m not sure whether to be proud that I’m beyond 1920′s technology or disappointed in being a disgrace to engineering – although I have never made the claim to be an engineer, if you look at most of the projects you see it’s about programming rather than engineering.

Please when you write comments like this, at least add reference points for the rest of us lesser mortals to learn from, it’s exactly your kind of approach that disuades the novices like us from looking to far into electronics where you rant but provide no alternative or anything to be gained. It’s exactly that kind of thinking and response that ruins the world.

Feel free to write back, but please at least be constructive – if not for my benefit but for anyone else who reads the unconstructive narrow minded garbage you have taken the time to write (without a real name or email).

Oh and I call it a ‘basic Theremin’ because it mimics a real life Thermin programmatically using a sensor instead and produces sounds based up the movement of the user much like the real life Theremin – I don’t believe that there’s a musical instrument or device that comes as close as describing the example I shared. Technology has advanced to a level that we just need a half decent program to replicate all those circuits – but then, you’re clearly stuck up there on your pedestal in the 1920′s declaring narrow minded heresy on those who try something different.

If you wish to respond, please be constructive for everyone’s benefit.

Larry.
