No Human Performers

For the musically curious, The League of Electronic Musical Urban Robots presents "GuitarBot" - "thrilling the audience as four moving bridges zing up and down its four strings" - playing a "Robo Recital" titled "No Human Performers". There are many interesting references in the story, including one to "the ingenious automated machines of the last three centuries" - a paradigm that has been present in the Australian EM underground for a couple of decades now, as has the interest in computer-driven electronica, evidenced by the mention of "the visionary Australian composer Percy Grainger" in the NYT item.
