    I love theremins. They're so odd and rare to see (except on youtube). Great stuff.

    Impressive... freaky... this video/experiment runs the gamut. Nice work though sir!


    I will be very interested to see whether the 'Theremin to the Max' tag is ever used again. If it is, rest assured my eyebrow will raise ever so slightly. And I will say "Well played, Kotaku. Well played indeed."

    This was a triumph.


    Wow, 26 replies in and I'm the first to drop that age old-anything to do with Portal, standard comment. You've changed Kotaku, you used to be cool.

    @GauntFaceKiller: The point of this article is that he RB2 using a theramin. The choice of Still Alive is incidental, actually. But thank you for your helpful insight.

    it's not that the theremin sucks, it's that this is the "first ever attempt" and that fact that it is REALLY imprecise. ofcourse, it's easier to blame the theremin right?

    @Derek Rumpler: It would be nice to be able to download the theremin as an instrument in Wii Music, at the very least.


    Oh wait. *sigh*

    Man, I completely forgot an instrument called a theremin existed before my memory was jogged by this video.

    @Real Serious Assassin: Jesse Dangerously raps on stage with a theremin (for at least one song, anyway.) It is an exciting sensory delight to my ear-holes.

    That is pretty neat, but I'm going to be the jackass distracted by the Half-life 2 t-shirt.


    I get it, you like Valve.

    Another impressive use of the Wiimote. Im sure not even Nintendo could foresee the applications of having a Bluetooth enable Wiimote lying around enginious people like him. I gotta use more Theremin on my songs, too...
