Mr. Hopkinson’s Computer: if Stephen Hawking Could Sing
August 13th, 2007
Text-to-speech software meets alternative music with this strangely compelling computer which has been programmed to sing.
Mr. Hopkinson’s Computer sings covers of everything from Radiohead to Portishead to The Stone Roses in his computerized drone.
In the video clip below, he even does a little sassy monologue and sings The Pixies classic Gigantic along with a live band.
Be sure to check out Mr. Hopkinson’s Computer Myspace page for more tunes. There are few more tracks here. (He’s also got a “girlfriend,” the Audrey 3000).
[Thanks for the tip, Heather!]
