CatSynth video: JJ reacts to Vinyl Cat
You may recall the cute turntable cat we posted on Friday. Well, it turns out JJ, who lives with our friends Georgia, Tillie, and the rest of the cats in Nova Scotia, was quite fascinated with the video.

Weekend Cat Blogging: Luna (Noise Research)
We at CatSynth are always curious about musical contraptions whose names include “Luna”. The latest we have encountered is luna_NT from Luna Noise Research (aka luna_lab).
Of course, I had to coax Luna to pose with it. She was mildly curious (as she is with anything that arrives at CatSynth HQ).

You will have to pardon the bad iPhone videography. But it does give an idea of what the basic functions do. What I can do with it musically remains to be seen.
