The title says it all really. But don't be put off by the idea of a mediocre, all-in-one, musical instrument experience. The Artiphon Instrument 1 does look like an instrument I'd like to pick up and play, partly because of its flexible multi-instrument approach, partly because it looks drop-dead gorgeous, and also because the focus is on expression even for non-musicians.
The Atriphone Instrument 1, developed in Nashville, TN, is currently doing very well indeed on Kickstarter. With 40 days to go they've exceeded their goal of $75k by double.
