The AutoSitar is a sitar that plays itself.
It sits in the corner and just sitarulates calmly, peacefully, randomly. A series of plectrum on a spinning wheel play the sitar while actuators tweak the frets. The plectrum are actuated electronically by an onboard microprocessor which is programmed
to play raga after beautiful raga with randomly generated phrases.
Coming soon: The AutoTabla and SuperHookah 2010.

I felt like giving you an Autobone
to go with your autositar but I
thought better of it. I was afraid
you would play the steel drums on
me after beating me up. + |

Croissant. What's better than having a private Ravi Shenkar concert? |

Nah. I save the steel drums for the wretched. I would only beat you bloody. |

Or the closest equivalent. I think
the NIH and WHO would advise
against sharing my insides with
your fragile ecosystem. |

Great, more muzack. You'd probably want the vocal chords (or whatever) of a whale suspended from a corner of the room, stimulated to produce their 'song' through electrical discharch. Maybe we could just get some dolphins playing pan-pipes and have done with it. God-consarned hippies. |

I only speak the truth! I only speak the truth! |

I think you meant "twooth." |
