This beautiful photo caught my eye - but I was especially intrigued by the electronic instrument. The photo is labeled thereannina29, and it looks like a variation on the theremin.

If you have any information on either the instrument or the performer, let me know in the comments!

Her name is Anna Troisi (you knew that). She’s an experimental electronic musician and coder. We had a brief exchange with her in the ThereminWorld forums where she shared more information about herself: http://www.thereminworld.com/forum.asp?cmd=p&T=3208&F=715

Thanks for the extra info. The transparent design is gorgeous and seems like it would make the theremin even more of a visual treat.

something to think about

Do you know what I hate about computers? The problem with computers is that there is not enough Africa in them. This is why I can’t use them for very long. Do you know what a nerd is? A nerd is a human being without enough Africa in him or her. I know this sounds sort of inversely racist to say, but I think the African connection is so important. You know why music was the center of our lives for such a long time? Because it was a way of allowing Africa in. In 50 years, it might not be Africa; it might be Brazil. But I want so desperately for that sensibility to flood into these other areas, like computers. — Brian Eno
