Introducing the new and improved "theremin" ... Concept is older than any oldest synth... Look up "Theremin" info here
I wonder if Ray Kurtzweil, a graduate of MIT and one of the pioneers of music synthesis and resident of Braintree, Massachusets (suburb of Boston) had his hand in this.
What's even cooler, Kurtzweil describes the future synthesizers - the ones that could connect to your brain and you can create music mentally. In concept it seems just like what I'd want to have. For more info on this concept and overall great comp. sci. read (not boring at all) check out Ray Kurtzweil's "The age of spiritual machines". Book is a bit dated but phenomenal in its prediction of future technology, computer science, chemistry, medicine and genetic engineering merging to create a super computer or even a super human.
Sadly, most of his predictions are based on assumption that we're living in a perfect world - a world where thechnophobia doesn't exist and religious zealouts abandon their pursuit of telling everyone else how to live.
I'll get off my soap box right about... Now.
