Hi All,

I found a new site,  It's a robotics site!  What does that have to do
with mechanical music you ask?  Well I ask you this question: Is a player
piano or barrel organ a robot?

On the site someone took the time to put up a example of a 1780
automate-robot-android.  There  are several pictures of the unit as well
as a 3-D picture (get out your glasses).  The automate is a woman
musician at a keyboard. The unit plays music!

Don't miss this one at:

The "M" and "E" have to be capitals.
