It's fun, but I have my doubts about the realtime aspect.
But I saved the tube, to extract the soundtrack.
A nice source for single symphonic samples...

I discovered  after some weeks that my cat Henk had been sleeping on my Casio SK-1.
When I tried to play on it again, several buttons were stuck, not getting up from the case.
With, of course, quite an uncontrollable output.
I had to dismantle the whole thing, meaning removing 11 tiny screws, turning it upside down,
with the risk of every loose button and parts rolling all over the floor, and assembly it all again.

I don't think it was real time also.

Glad you were able to get you casio back into working order. Next time ask her to pay for the lodging with a tune!

Wow! Superb! Top notch performance! =)

Its not realtime. I do think however, that they first recorded the cat playing, taped the vid to a normal performance, and trained the orchestra to play along.

If you check the related videos, you can pretty well guess, that it's the exact way the production progress went.
It's very amusing nevertheless, and not least funny.

The above book documents paintings by cats - some that represent things you and I can recognize.

I'm not sure if this cat actually is making music though it seems certain it really likes the piano.

I guess humans don't have a corner on creativity...
