    Just something that I never thought about, thus interesting for me to see how it can be done.

      I've wondered about this in the past, but I've never had the thought that it would appear on YouTube. What a maroon - EVERYTHING is on YouTube.

      Does she need a visit from Safelite?

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Somewhat related, but the story of a kid that has no arms but was able to get a driver license.

          Life size silicon doll buyer’s guide:

          Link to video

          Skeletal construction, from TPE (cheaper, less durable, less lifelike) to silicon (more expensive, more durable, more lifelike), details like wigs vs. “implanted” hair, variable firmness for different parts of the doll, etc. Brief discussion on buyers’ psychology. A rather comprehensive guide given the length of the video.

            One person singing two tones at the same time.

            Interesting and impressive, but not exactly pleasant, rather weird. She demonstrates usage in a folk tune near the end, but I cannot yet imagine how to use that effectively in compositions. :man-shrugging:

              "Overtone singing" has a rich history going back hundreds of years.

                                "A positron can be seen as electron moving backward in time."

                                What the hell does that even mean?

                                I long for the days when the atom was a simple miniature solar system.

                                  I don't know the theremin well enough to tell if this is all authentic, but it seems plausible. The Flight of the Bumblebee is well suited for the theremin.

                                    This just strikes me as something very “Asian” these days. Only the (East) Asians do this, and they only do it with Western music, Western musical instruments. (And the “9 Women” reference reminds me of @CrashTest.)
