GENOMICON

Well Hackaday find it annoying, but I think it’s quite cool in a funny sort of way.

It’s a myspace page for this remarkable looking steampunk sequencer that someone’s made

taken to the typical myspace extreme of total unreadability – but it is quite pretty in a funny sort of way

Which is cool, because I think steampunk is kindof done. It’s turned into a free-ride – that http://makersmarket.com has just started up, and it seems like 1/2 the stuff on it is steampunk – but it’s devolved into a brass-clock-part variant of ash-trays with seashells stuck on them. It needs some sort of extrema to explore. Some geniune functionality or intrinsic value or something.

But anyway – this music machine looks like it could be… that… if you could actually see what was going on, which you can’t, because it’s on myspace… and maybe that’s part of the appeal.
