I saw it a few months ago. I thought it was a really good documentary. I
especially liked the interviews with Moog. I finally know how to pronounce
his name now.
Also, there's a part where they talk about a small orchestra of
Theremins they put together, and they'd have each player playing a simple
repeating rhythm, and together they all made a complete flowing song. It
reminded me of the way alot of techno is constructed.
