  • Incredible!

  • This is CG, its on a DVD series called Animusic. No farm equipment involved.

  • And, also, this was a bad video to steal. This went Viral back in '08.

  • @freekyweeky6 Uploaded by themewedd on 16 Nov 2006

  • It is called Animusic and it is against Copyright Laws to post this vid as your own.

  • How in the HELL did I stumble upon this 2 times in my life? Once in 2007 and now... Both correlating to school, lol.

  • The company has created a number of quite amazing 3D computer graphics music animation videos that are available via the company website. According to information on the Animusic website:

    Both the graphics and the music are entirely digitally synthesized. Virtual instruments are invented by building computer graphics models of objects that would appear to create the sound of the corresponding music synthesizer track.

  • Fake......Gay!.Jokes look very fake though. just sayin

  • One Word. ANIMUSIC his is Computer Generated, and a Crap Quality video recording

  • One Word. ANIMUSIC

  • yeah this audio is sped up or something because I have seen this before a bunch of other times on different sources and the audio matches. it sounds terrible in this

  • Music horrible! Very bad sync! Good animation though.

    I go make sandwich now.

  • I cannot believe that there are still dumbfucks who think this is real. Wait, yes I can.

  • This is Pipe Dream from Animusic.

  • This video was published by ATI (now owned by AMD) at the time when the Radeon 9500/9700 was produced. It was included with the software bundle.

  • kewl

  • that is so cool!

  • amazing!!

  • You forgot to menton that it's a hoax and this is "AniMusic".

  • @MozartJunior22 no he didnt, read the last part

  • Wth is CG...

  • ....

    Yeah. It's REAL.

    You'd think you KIDS could tell, since you keep your heads in videos game your whole life.

    This is clearly CG.

    Duh.

    ..

  • @Shattersmith True, the video itself is an accomplishment though

  • @Shattersmith R U tell ing me that you beleive everything you see on the web? watch the CD on animusic.com

  • This is your brain on weed.

  • I love how the guy came up with an elaborate description of how real it is, even though it is part of the Animusic series lol.

  • The first time I saw this I was told it was real but into the first couple of minutes I realized that was just not possible.....and according to snopes, it is not real.....But, as shadowrazar says, who cares! It IS so cool!

  • who cares if its fake its still cool.

  • this vit is clearly animated and a big waste of my time u owe me 2 min of my life back jerk

  • is this an animation?

  • YES

  • Anything the Mind of Man can Conceive and Believe, He can Achieve.

  • my dad sent this to me as an attachment with the whole BS story. i immediately recognized it as part of the CG series and corrected him...

    the problem is he and his friends bought it hook line and sinker.

    THESE ARE OLD PEOPLE THAT VOTE WHO WATCH AND BELIEVE FOX NEWS!!!!

    ...now i totally understand.

  • I received this 4 times in the last year from friends that believed it was real. EACH are very liberal democrats that hate FOX News too. I, on the other hand, watch FOX News, listen and make my own decisions about what is bull and what is not. I NEVER believed the video music was real. Watch FOX News for 2 weeks and check their facts (not on Liberal blogs). You'll be surprised how honest FOX News reports are compared to network news. Your dad may have more on the ball then you realize.

  • the whole point i've made here is that this video is a hoax. that you want to then tell me that my dad might be more on the ball than anyone realizes makes my point even more perfectly than i could have hoped.

    thanks for backing me up on this, jackass.

  • @bandersen58 not that it has any relevance to this movie at all, but I got 2 words for you: Glenn Beck.

  • @bandersen58 What the hell does FOX News have to do with this video? I highly doubt there's a correlation between how "liberal" one is and how well their ability to identify CGI is. Whether you actually believe your claim is true or you're a troll, I'm going to kick your ass.

  • Talk about stolen from Animusic? They used Pipe Dream and many other pieces of music, put it with some animation, and made Animusic.

    This video is part of a DVD. In a way, you're stealing this video and giving credit to the University of Iowa. Should we flag? :P

    And besides, the "Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory and the Sharon Wick School

    of Engineering" don't even exist ;]

    not even the full video! :(

  • Im in 5th grade and my music teacher showed me this. At first she tought it was real but it is fake.

  • If someone could actually make this machine, it would be awesome. nice vid and music though :)

  • It's part of a show called Animusic. Created by computers not farm machinery. This was also used by ATI to show off their Video Cards. A few years ago this was part of the Animusic show they featured on PBS during one of their begging for money months.According to Internet Movie Database it came out in 2001. So Hamlee113 must have been born 1988 then. Since he or she said they were 13yrs old when the video came out.

  • good animation though

  • Of course it isn't real, that's the beauty. What is amazing about this is that the software that generates these graphics is more than a movie rendering. The ' graphic instruments' you see are actually played by musicians and they correspond exactly to what they play on their real instrument via MIDI (musical instrument digital interface). So it will play differently according to what they play. The creators also wrote the music... truly genius achievement. Get the videos!

  • The author of this video is either stupid or retarded.....It's Animusic

  • read the end. it was posted over 4 years ago. he thought it was cg. he's not the "retarded" one...

  • i made this...dont be hatin

    (and it only took me 3 months and 8 million dollars)

  • It's funny you say that because it came out in 2002 I think. I saw it when I was 13 end I guess your like 7 so it can't be true -.-

  • wow take the joke

  • Wow! Take the critic.

  • my first thought was ' cartoon'. nothing changed as I watched the entire song on a email sent to me by an "educated man". He is old and may think the educated buddies are capable of such feats. Great song all the same.

  • Not real farm equipment :-) but waaay cool vid

  • Yep, love to believe it were real but fake for sure. You can find it on Snopes.

  • This is one of the songs off of Animusic..called Pipe Dreams..they have quite a few neat videos....just search for Animusic.....I really like Starship Groove...check em out

  • this is so fake

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

    am i the only one who find this video hilarious ._.

  • I've actually made something like this but alot more low tech!

  • dude they so u this in 7th grade band there r like 50 diffents songs

  • Although this video is fake, it might be just the inspiration someone needs to build something like it for real! It could become a real machine controlled by a computer rather than only a computer animation. It's amazing how much science fiction has become science fact!

  • THANK YOU! For some reason, people seem to think this is a real machine. You can tell it's CG from a) the camera and b) when the drums start up.

  • Haha, Im sure they aligned all those ping-pong balls just to hit perfect.  FAKE FO SHO!!! Good Video though, but fake.

  • There is no "Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory" or "Sharon Wick School of Engineering" at the University of Iowa. There is a Voxman Music Buidling and a Seamans Center for Engineering. The video is a great piece of computer animation, though; good for Animusic.

  • How did people think it was real when the bars glowed?

  • Because we thought it was the reflection of the light. I like the music though. And the video itself is amazing.

  • shhhhhhh dont tell the people in iowa its fake they might get mad to know their only accomplishment isnt real

  • Shhh don't tell the folks from Iowa that its not real

  • So, you people really believe that this is "real"? It's a computer.

  • It's amazing but everything about it in the info section is false. It's not a real machine. It's a computer animated video called "Pipe Dream" which appeared on a DVD produced by Animusic.

  • Except the last line....

  • Awesome, confusing and great.

  • Great entertainment Video..I enjoyed. (5*) Sherry

    Thanks monello for the share.

  • Well we see it,the wonders are still in the world.Thank you Monello.Marvellous

  • Wow! Excellent video! Cheers!

  • Real or not - enjoyed the video! Thanks to monello for the share! 5*****

  • Oh dear I was quite enthralled by it till I read the comments.

    Barbara

  • ohhhhhhhhhh

    ;-}~

  • great share mikeee...x

  • epic fail lolz

    this is computer animated and not built irl

  • For all the people who say it's an actual machine, look up AniMusic. If you still don't believe it's fake, then your all dumbasses who need to go suck a fat cock. Have fun living a life of complete and total denial about yourself.

  • Joder, este vídeo me venía con mi antigua Sound Blaster 16, en forma de demo de sonido. Tiene más años que la tos, y es todo hecho por ordenador!!

  • I hate it when people post things that are not true. All anyone needs to do is go and watch AniMusic and you will see that all this is CG and computerized like every other machine in the films. Nice try sounding legitimate, but you failed horribly.

  • And bugger off Smithonian Institution!

    Your inquiry concerning a musical instrument made from farm machinery pieces has been received in the Smithsonian's Public Inquiry Mail Service office for a response.

    The web site you referred us to shows a computer enhanced or animated creation — as indicated by the caption "Musique Animation" — and not an actual musical instrument.

  • Contd:

    Further, we were unable to find any reference to a Robert M. Trammel Music Conservatory and the University of Iowa does not have a Sharon Wick School of Engineering nor a Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall.

    The Institution cannot accept a donation of something that doesn't exist.

    We appreciate your interest in the Smithsonian Institution.

  • lol animusic. I remember that from middle school.

  • it also cuts out at the end...the whole video's not here

  • It says in the info ----> that it's CG. not too sure why people are arguing aboot it :P

  • this is so computer graphic, what are the chances of all those balls landing on strings and not going off course when they go to hit the other strings and bongos

  • hah! That's what I've told people

  • hey iowa hater! you don't know the first thing about the great state of iowa, except that the Universtiy is home to some of the finest writers alive, it's one of the best medical schools in the country (actually, it's ranked top 20 universities in the country by US News & World Report). Also, Iowa has the best publc schools in the nation. so this is animation? it's rad & it's more that you can do. Oh yeah, and Iowa helped catapult Obama into a seirous contest for the nomination he now has.

  • 5 stars for Animusic

    Fail for Story.

  • Ummmmmm, University? Cough cough *retards* cough cough this is clearly Animusic.

  • 1.) It's animusic you stupid plagerizers

    2.) This is animation, anyone could tell

    3.) Iowa, really, thats your best story, the only thing iowa has is cows, like you! Get off of youtube you liars!!

  • ANIMUSIC THERES A WHOLE SERIES noobs

    surfin the internetz? ur doin it wrong!

  • The real story about this video is it was designed by a graphics designer who was trying to get into Pixar (that may be innacurate) so to show the possible employer what he could do he created this...It is completely computer generated and very well made physics in it are almost perfect.

  • Not quite. This is actually the production of a small, independent company called Animusic. They make videos of imaginary musical contraptions. They even have a channel here on YouTube.

  • the semen face is making this song.

  • University of Iowa? I thought it was made by some students at the University of the Planet Zoltar. Sorry my mistake.

  • no it was the university of planet Zollar. very prestigous college might i add.

  • This is probably the best animation I've seen in my life. All you have to do is google the creator of it who is Wayne Lytle. He did a lot of other great stuff.

  • how would the drums sound like that with big tubes in the bottom of them?

  • Hey all you dumbasses, it took 13,000 hours for students to build this at the University of IOWA. Thank you all for saying it's fake, you all truly personify the human spirit...

  • Any one with half a brain can clearly see that this is animated.

  • Maybe there is a real one at the University Student Union, but this video is animation. Incredible animation by the way.

  • yeah, Xylophone panels don't glow when they get hit, this is animated.

  • First of all, Those arnt xylophone bars that are glowing, they are vibraphone bars. and second of all, everyone knows that this is annimated and if they didnt then thats sad.

  • I must be a very sad person 'cause I actually believed it!

  • Ya, you must be.

  • I agree.

  • Spaceman says "Hey all you dumbasses, it took 13,000 hours for students to build this at the University of IOWA. Thank you all for saying it's fake, you all truly personify the human spirit..."

    How did you come up with that name? I think you should have used 'spacedman'. If you haven't figured how stupid you sounded making that comment yet, try looking up Animusic. The DVD is nice to watch when you're 'spaced'. Who's really the dumbass here?

  • hahah its not real,, " Themewedd" ,, Ur an Idiot hahaha :D

    enjoy the computer animate music,, it is wicked no doubt

  • i dont think its real, it looks animated. the music might be real, but not the machine

  • OOoooooppppppssss

    Sorry...That comment was meat as a reply to plutoandian

  • My science teacher showed this to us yesterday and said that it was real so all the students were like, "OH MY GOD!!! THAT'S SO COOL!"

    I just wanted to burst out, "It's not real!!!" but I didn't...I wish I did though...

  • Totally FAKE...Like the chick I dated last week.

  • wow,

    haha

  • no fucking ass hole it is real

  • Well....Maybe your fuckable asshole is real. Congratulations, I am sure that it is delightful.

    However...the video is not.

    Cheers, lover.

  • Of course it wasn't MADE at the University of Iowa, it was DELIVERED there by an advanced civilization from Alpha Centauri. Didn't you guys see Close Encounters of the Third Kind? The aliens have made progress since their last visit :).

  • I think maybe everyone just wants it to be real soooo bad that they keep telling themselves it is.

  • Looking at the design it's easy to see it wouldn't work.

    The blunderbuss shaped ejectors are a huge clue it's fake. Think of the choke on a shotgun versus and old blunderbuss.

  • it looks loke it has been animated but are u sure its animated ot real

  • it sounds like somethin from crash bandicoot

  • :L it does

  • I like how they edited out the ATI logo that is on the bottom. It's fun even though it is only a computer graphic.

  • This is a video from the Animusic DVD, not the screen saver adaptation ATI released later on.

  • This isnt from the University of Iowa Farm.

    Thats bullshit...

    This is an attachment that comes with the ATI video cards, to test them...

    Dont even bother contradicting me, i recently bought an ATI video card, and thats what came with it.

    In the actual Music Machine program (which is called Pipedream) and it is intended as a screensaver which you can navigate through, change views, pause etc. etc. etc....

  • lol

  • I'll bother to contradict, but only because you're a jackass. This is an animation from the first Animusic DVD. Later, ATI got together with Animusic to use this piece (Pipe Dream) as a tech demo for some cards. This is a rip from the original, which is why you don't see an ATI logo in the corner.

  • I'd agree with u there, I remember seeing the animusic logo in the corner. I missed that part out....

  • I'm surprised none of the other Animusic videos have been put forth as real creations. Here on YouTube it looks a lot like CGI, but on DVD video it's crystal clear and sharp, and the background detail is amazing. Look for dents in the walls and floor where balls have missed.

  • how is this real at all..

  • its not... it could be if you worked forever

  • rfth88 said it - I also live in Iowa City, and there is no Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall. -.- Check your facts before you post stupid animated things like this.

  • No shit that this is CGI, anyone who can't see that must be totally oblivious. XD

  • you guys are way too serious.

    and lame.

  • This is, although amazing, fake. It's a computer generated animation. It's a clip from a DVD by Animusic called Pipe Dream. Search YouTube for animusic. Search on Snopes(dot)com for 'farm machine music' for more on the story.

  • I live in Iowa city and no such thing as the Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall or the Sharon Wick School.

  • everyone in my class at school thought this a real machine

  • well that's why your in the short yellow bus each morning

  • lolz...dont make fun of the short bus

  • This incredible hoax of trying to make people believe this isn't CG is the collaborative work of themewedd and other losers with no life. Either your stevie wonder or your retarded

  • wow your a dick bout to have to keep my pimp hand strong

  • If telling people the obvious truth is being a dick then yes you need to go excersize your pimp hand

  • Whats the difference, exactly?

  • its 1 of them animusic things. geeez

  • Geez it's just a CGI that was probably made by someone at U of Iowa who tried to use instruments that looked like farm machines or something alright? Btw if you think that this is a real machine you've got some serious IQ-raising to do (and possibly catch up with your sleep?)

  • All I can say is if you people believe this, you're clinically retarded.

  • I just thought I would add that some of you don't think that this guy is telling the truth with the story, he explains it at the end as a fake... just thought that would help some of you peoples.

  • Originally that disclaimer was not on the end of the description. The poster should have removed the lie as soon as he discovered he'd been duped and put up the truth. The truth is more interesting anyway.

    Poster fails because he was duped (believed a lie.

    Poster fails because when he discovered it, he didn't correct the description.

    Poster fails because he is violating Animusic's copyright.

  • only one ball misses the whole time

  • jglsd1 is a huge tool

  • this is CGI. look up Animusic, or go see it at your local electronics store where they sell the HDTV's.

  • Im pretty sure it is CGI but still, hats off to the people who desinged it.

  • Thanks for propagating myths. Don't believe everything you're sent in an email. Ever hear of animusic dot com? Didn't think so.

  • animusicDOTcom

    I saw it on PBS. It's part of Animusic 2. BTW, anyone who believes this is real is more gullible than they are willing to admit.

    And I don't think your band director has a degree in physics. It's called "Chaos Theory." Look it up.

  • wow it's real i know because my band director told me it was. i am in 7th grade and i play the tuba, bass drumb, saxaphone, clarinette, trumpet, zylaphone and fife. so i know because i love band. thanks for your time.

  • I believe you're in the seventh grade, but past that, I don't believe a word of your post. Not only is this clearly fake, you also spelled half of those instruments incorrectly. Come on. "Clarinette"? Not even a good guess.

  • That's French for "clarinet".

  • I fully agree with singing heart. Great work

  • It would be better if they told the truth so we could stop putting it down for it's lie. It is fabulous and great work. So get past the lie and enjoy this sweet creation.

  • I know its fake ... But dont ya wish it wasnt.Google it

  • Go to Animusic - dot - com and you will see that this is computer animated, copyrighted material

  • ANIMUSIC!!!! haha nice bs up there.

  • who cares im from Iowa 2 and this is awsome

  • Over reacting to something that was designed to entertain you .this is genius.

  • I lived in Iowa.

    Iowa is not real.

  • THIS IS VIRTUAL. URBAN LEGENDS SAYS:

    Comments: False. The video is amazing, no question, but the "fantastic machine" depicted therein wasn't built out of farm equipment parts at the University of Iowa. It's an example, rather, of the incredible 3D computer animation created by Wayne Lytle and his team at Animusic in Austin, Texas. No such machine exists in the real world.

  • thats so kol and im from iowa go hawks

  • themewedd is either an idiot who believed someone else's lie and repeated it here, or he figures us for fools and told this lie so he could laugh at all the suckers who fell for it.

    I first saw this at SIGGRAPH in 2001 at their computer graphics theater night. It was one of two video shorts that really got a reaction from the audience. This video was created by a company called Animusic. Their sample videos are better quality than YouTube and this one is only one of about a dozen animations.

  • I go to the university, and I know we don't have anything like this.  Has anyone ever heard of Animusic? Because this is from that series, search for it yourself.

  • I live in Iowa.

    The Des Moines Register is not real.

  • This is all computer animation. Its not real

  • But it is still totally cool as hell!!!

  • This is not even real

    I live in Iowa and there is no such thing

    Check the Des Moines Register

  • its real

  • this is soooo kool!

  • Whoa they had this before the Lance Burton magic show in vegas on the big screen!

  • Come to my channel if you wanna see some cool farm machinery! This shit is pretty cool, but wait till you see my fucking stuff! Come, now!

    Hurry...I'll leave the light on for ya!
