Not quite classical - "jazzical" perhaps? There is a freeform nature to the music that is more Free Jazz than classical, but the underlying classical style of the input is still readily apparent.

It might be interesting to feed it Jazz instead. Jazz in Jazz out.


Oddly enough it has the characteristics of bad jazz, like prono music but classical.


> The only pitfall we've run into was in connecting the manipulation of the rods with the manipulation of the more abstract numbers.

You could try clearly printing the numbers on the rods - connecting the abstract symbol to the physical unit of measure. No science behind this, just the gut feeling of a father of 3.


The ultrasonic transducer probably does a pretty good job of warding off animals. Nothing quite like disturbing the wildlife while counting how many people are disturbing the wildlife.


But arduino. Arduino arduino, arduino. Don't you know it can last five days?!

It also mentioned the badly drawn ads.


Wonderful book, but if Norman is updating it, I really hope he drops the 'POET' backronym. It was contrived and awkward, and it's repeated inclusion felt seemed more like a slight to the publisher who changed the name from Psychology Of Everyday Things to its more approachable name.


Have to admit, I was more amused by the fake cinder-block wallpaper!


Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "drink to forget"!
