This brings to mind the mechanations used by the jazz guitarist Pat Metheny on his 'Orchestrations' CD where a huge array of instruments were controlled mostly mechanically to give him accompaniment to play over. Interesting inventions, although I think that it might be easier just to learn to play well ;->
Part of my commitment to the shakuhachi world is to introduce hidden knowledge that is not easily accessible from the outside. I met many shakuhachi people in Japan during my fieldwork. Their insights are too precious to be buried. Somebody needs to write them down.
