Cello Challenge

Alex

So, think you can take on Yo Yo Ma, hotshot? Well, take this Cello Challenge from Berliner Philharmoniker and see how you stack up.

The Flash game is quite simple: it's you vs. Camille Saint-Saëns (um, despite the first name, Camille is a guy, okay? How to pronounce his name is different matter entirely).

Take the bow with your mouse, and move it in rhythm of the music - if you do it wrong, you'll hear it ...

I love it! It is like Guitar Hero/Rockband for classical music! I wonder how accurate the bowing is? I mean, you could really learn something about bowing if it was accurate. I love how it sounds when you mess up. And I love how you can raise and lower his elbow. This is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time. Thanks.

?? Who cares about ?? Circumference divided by *diameter*? A circle is defined by its *radius*, not its diameter!

There may be some explanation as to how this works, but this clock on first sight (the only important sight) doesn't work at all. It seems like these guys thought ?=6? Because when ?=?, ? is not 6, 2? is not 12, and 3?/2 is certainly not 9. It's fucking 4.71238898038469.

PS- All of these equations would work if ?=6. What the fuck.
