MMD readers may be interested to see this feature on the BBC website,
inspired by the short film, "Automatic Music", made earlier this year
by Florence Kennard.

Florence was able to make the film thanks to a large extent to MMD
posting her appeal for crowdfunding, the generosity of its readers
who responded, and help and encouragement from the MBSGB.

This is a good example of how networking and assisting through the
mechanical music community can bring the interest to a wider audience.
