    Victor Gama creates his own instruments and performs live with a strong visual element (instrument and projections included). Definitely check out the "Instrmts 4 Da Museum" under the Projects section. He's performing at Brown and at Carnegie Hall with the Kronos Quartet in early March for those interested.

    This is an interesting piece that crosses from musical instrument to art piece. The rules given to the piece give it a distinct sound, abilities and difficulty, but make it truly unique.

Sierra Wireless Mercury 885 Unlocked Aircard - 2 views

    So after a lot of research, this Aircard seems to be the best bet in terms of units that can be tested with Frontline SMS in the US and work in Africa. There are phones that work in the US (which are listed on the Downloads / Requirements page on Frontline), but most of the phones that are on the approved list and are shown to actually work are mostly used in Europe, Asia, and Africa. There are a number of threads, but here are two describing issues and then the end solution: http://frontlinesms.ning.com/forum/topics/where-to-buy-gsm-modem-that?id=2052630:Topic:17627&page=2#comments http://frontlinesms.ning.com/forum/topics/washington-dc-based?commentId=2052630:Comment:24367 I'm going to put in an order so we have it for testing next week.
