How "See and Say" toys work.
During my post lunch food coma dream state, I realized I never thought about how Fisher Price See and Say work. I found this article on their construction.

I've never been able to digest Björk though I do respect her art. This post however, is in regards to my enthusiasm for Andrew T. Huang's work (director).
Also, electronic music.

Micronaut
"particulate is the latest in a string of experimental electronic music
albums released by Chris Randall (of Sister Machine Gun) under his
micronaut moniker.
particulate departs from his previous forays in to this realm inasmuch as it is recorded entirely without the aid of modern conveniences like MIDI and digital audio workstations. The album was written entirely on the Roland CMU-800R, which is a music peripheral for the Apple //e computer. Every sound on this EP was either sequenced from the CMU-800R or played live, and the entirety was recorded to, and summarily mixed from, an analog 8-track tape recorder.
Due to the nature of the MIDI-free environment, Chris used a limited palette of synthesizers and drum machines to record these four pieces. Korg MS-20 and 770 analog monosynths, a Korg Monotribe, a Doepfer modular synthesizer, an alphaSyntauri synth (that also runs on the Apple //e) and the Curtis granular application for the iPad, along with the sounds generated by the CMU-800R, comprise the entirety of the sonic toolbox for this EP, along with various effects hardware."

Skinny Puppy: Wielding New Weapons
"Mankind is its own worst enemy, now having become the very weapons it
wields toward a self destructive path. Nivek Ogre speaks with ReGen on
the topics and circumstances that led to Skinny Puppy’s latest opus,
Weapon.
An InterView with Nivek Ogre of Skinny Puppy
By Ilker Yücel (Ilker81x)
Since the early ’80s, Skinny Puppy has redefined the parameters by which
modern music is judged, creating new and unorthodox sounds and styles
to exemplify the truly experimental nature of industrial music. Tackling
topics as diverse as animal cruelty, pharmaceutical and chemical
dependency, and mental illness and insanity, Skinny Puppy has continued
to explore the darker recesses of human experience. With the band’s
latest opus, titled Weapon, Nivek Ogre, cEvin Key, and Mark
Walk touch on humanity’s evolution toward the modern age through the
advancement of various forms of weaponry, the manipulation of the media,
technology, and information to the degree that mankind has become the
worst weapon of all, the biggest threat to its own perpetuation. Prior
to the album’s release, Ogre spoke with ReGen on his thoughts behind the
album’s concept, life in the criminal age, as well as his insights into
the human body/mind’s healing ability, and his concerns on a culture
intent on entertaining itself to death."
