In my search for MIDI files, I came across this project by a Cornell student named Levy Lorenzo. He designed a set up which made it possible for six hamsters to trigger inputs through their movements, which were then routed through a MIDI sequencer. The music was created with 3 voices spanning three octaves and three rhythmic tiers, each with varied by two hamsters which modified the rhythm and the note sequence. The posted MIDI file on the project's webpage is surprisingly easy to listen to, with no random-sounding hamster chortling.If the hamsters do an album, I hope they call me to design the album cover...
