The inventors are coming are popping up around the world.

Cybernetic monochords are going to be the big lobster mobster for the next two years.

Here is a nice paper talking about different methods of control.

Some quick thoughts:
+ Big props to the research team. Julius Smith is everywhere.
+ Groovy monochord pictures toward the end
+ Bode graphs will become the new eye candy for Electronic musicians
+ Are Magnetic actuators better than mechanical pluckers?
+ Can PID control be stable with better error correction?
+ Where do I buy neodydmium futures?

A proper reading and write-up is do on this one.
