Submission + - Introducing L2Ork, World's First Linux Laptop Orch
Agram writes: "Who says penguins cannot make music? Take a netbook, wiimotes, nunchuks, and hemispherical speakers (which were once IKEA salad bowls), toss it up with some Ubuntu goodness and what you get is Virginia Tech's L2Ork, World's first Linux-based laptop orchestra. With its affordable design and support from the Linux community L2Ork hopes to bring laptop orchestras to K-12 education and beyond. So, regardless whether you wish to hear how L2Ork might sound or to learn how to build your own Linux-based *Ork infrastructure, perhaps this is a good opportunity to reopen the age-old debate: is Linux finally ready for some serious audio work?"
