Remote Controlled Beetle

I found something strange on Hack a Day this morning.
It is a video of a real live beetle with a microchip attached
to his nerves to make him fly, stop flying, go left, right, up
and down. The first half the video I was excited but the
longer it went on the more sad and weird it was.

Here is the video

Un-canon Canons

have been
 working on trying
 to write canons or rounds*
 that are harmonically complex and  maybe 
that even change key. I got the idea from my faculty
 Arun C. who also suggested I try to make a cannon that changes it's length 
after each repetition. I haven't had much luck with either of these two tasks yet but
 hopefully this weekend I will have something to post. # Give it a try it is real fun to try and figure out.
