Yamaha's New Visible Music Interface: TENORI-ON

Some of you may have already heard about this, but Yamaha recently introduced a new digital musical instrument for the 21st century called TENORI-ON, which has been named among the 25 Most Innovative Products of the Year by PCWorld.com. The TENORI-ON is "an ‘Inspired and intuitive handheld instrument that redefines music-making and screams innovation,’ adding, ‘nothing else even comes close'."

So......in other words, it allows anyone and everyone to create and play music with no training or talent! Yamaha truly has created a new "visible music" interface, and if it catches any legs, get ready for even more user generated content online and perhaps even a new genre of music :-)
