David Byrne Teams up with Hanson's Talking Head
     

We've reported on David Hanson and his uncanny android heads numerous times
in the past. Now the most famous Talking Head
of all has partnered with
Hanson to create a singing android for a show at the Museo Nacional
Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid. David
Byrne blogged about the collaboration, describing his trip to the
Dallas, Texas area to visit David Hanson's Richardson lab.
In addition to describing their project, Byrne also muses on previous
singing robots such as HAL's performance of "Daisy Bell (Bicycle Built
for Two) in 2001: A Space Odyssey. He also notes that he and David
Hanson both ran into similar problems in art school because the schools
weren't equipped to handle people with non-traditional interests.
