Prepping up for the Orchestrion tour, Pat practicing one of the pieces from his new album. Surrounding him are the robots, all except two Disklaviers are custom built by Eric Singer and LEMUR (League of Electronic Musical Urban Robots), Ken Caulkins and everyone at Ragtime, Mark Herbert, Cyril Vance, and The Peterson Company.
Currently, we’re working out a method for simple and effective navigation of Ableton Live for live improvisation and composition. Our friends are the faithful keystrokes and Max/MSP patches.

Nice job
Hi, Borris
I’m Jinho, a guy whom met you after Pat Metheny’s
Orchestrion show of Friday and Saturday in Seoul, Korea.
Did you arrive Osaka well?
I’m sorry about can not hanging out on Saturday night.
But I guess we can go next time if you come to Korea again.
Anyway, I thought you Orchestrion robot musicians were fantastic!
You’re real mad scientist behind this creative project.
I hope total sound valance of whole machines and expression
can be even better after few years.
And I really hope to see you again at that time.

Although you’re quite young, I think you have great talent
and creativity.
