*ponders the possibilities*

confirm the greatness of this thing for me.

Do you think it's amazing? Would you shell out the money for an Eigenharp, even if you didn't know how to play music? What are your thoughts on the Eigenharp's learning curve being simpler than most other instruments?

It looks like you can set it up to automate some of the sounds, and swoop your hand over part of it to make it fluctuate/scratch, depending on what instrument is programmed into it. There's a smaller version called the Pico. It costs less, is a bit more limited, but is a lot easier to carry around and show off if you were so inclined to do so.
