It's a real shame the croud is a bit... unsophisticated. The machine is an utter work of genius. People have made video games that revolved around less sophisticated and featureful puzzle boxes. And it's made entirely of wood. It's got logic gates. It plays music. It has tons of puzzle locks. It's gorgeous.
I think it's entirely fair that he claims on the site that it's the coolest desk in the world. I would love just to see all the things it can do - heck I'd pay for that short video.
Certainly not everyone, to be sure. Really, I'm sorta griping about that lady who's like "But can it play other songs?" It seemed remarkably ungracious. A lot of the crowd jokes were kinda lame, but that's my projection of an overly-reverential attitude about it.
My comment really does a disservice to the useful comments/questions. Like "why try to build a pipe organ?" which honestly I think we all wanted to ask.
And - full disclosure - I would have totally wasted my chance to ask something meaningful, as I woulda gone full stupid basking in the presence of it.
