The Robot Symphony

With heroic efforts the FIRST team has recovered from a mechanical set back and a blizzard that lost us a practice.  There are still Unknowns and Undones but likely just an average batch of each for an Earliest Possible Event.

We decided on a bit of levity.  We have lots of musical talent on the team.  Software and music in particular are obviously in synergy but even our fabricators have the discipline and precision to make good things happen.  

So we convened what I suspect is the first ever Robotics Team Symphony Orchestra.


It was directed by one of our alumni who runs a music school.  The sound engineer was an alum from the original 2015 team who is a professional musician.   The good video and sound is being worked on for future video use.  We got a bit of improv, some sound effects and the premier of a short piece created just for this purpose.

And the guys in the back row (guitar, drums and keyboard) jamming.  I should point out for copyright purposes that our robots only run on DC....
