Mirror mirror on the wall, why am I backwards...?

true mirror: non-reversing mirrors

Introducing The TRUE MIRROR!
From prehistoric times, people have only seen themselves reflected backwards. As it turns out, the backward images we see and interact with everyday are profoundly different from what is real. No wonder we are so often off in our self-evaluations compared with how others see us!

Looks like my instrument is already patented...

United States Patent: 5,689,078

Music generating system and method utilizing control of music based upon displayed color


Abstract
An apparatus and method for generating music from color input data is disclosed. Color data extracted from a selected portion of a still or moving picture image displayed on a color graphical output means is converted by a central processing unit into a signal comprising musical information which is played by a sound output means. The images are retrieved from a storage device. The image portion converted into musical information corresponds to the location of a cursor displayed over the image. The central processing unit is programmed and controlled by a keyboard and mouse to move the cursor to varying positions on the displayed image and to generate different musical information depending on the color data at each position. The apparatus and method can also be used to transform audio input from a musical device and a MIDI interface into color data for display as an image on a color graphical output means.

A Radio Ad Insertion System..

SpacialAudio.com
From the site:
Are you a terrestrial station that wants to provide your listeners with an online presence - but the AFTRA ruling and other factors are making things very hard for you? Then SOS3 is here to save the day!
SOS3 can interface with your existing automation system and replace "over-the-air" advertisements with "internet-only" advertisements - and then stream this modified, internet only stream over the internet to listeners across the world!
SOS3 reports exactly how many times advertisements played and even EXACTLY how many listeners heard each advertisement. It also keeps track of song history so you can comply with reporting requirements.

Time to update my list...

Email Re-Defined

ZOÀ

From the site:
ZoÎ

The goal here is to do for email (starting with your personal mailbox)
what Google did for the web... The Google principle: It doesn't matter
where information is because I can get to it with a keystroke.
So what is ZoÎ? Think about it as a sort of librarian, tirelessly,
continuously, processing, slicing, indexing, organizing, your messages.
The end result is this intertwingled web of information. Messages put in
context. Your very own knowledge base accessible at your fingertip. No
more "attending to" your messages. The messages organization is done
automatically for you so as to not have the need to "manage" your email.
Because once information is available at a keystroke, it doesn't matter
in which folder you happened to file it two years ago. There is no
folder. The information is always there. Accessible when you need it. In
context.
