The idea that technology might one day become autonomous - eventually providing a substitute for human creativity - is a fantasy that has gained serious traction in recent years, and captured the collective imagination of everyone from Hollywood to hobbyists, the world over.  
  
Developed by [Lasse Munk](http://vimeo.com/bitjuggler?ref=protein.xyz), the Danish sound designer who works under the moniker [Soundjuggling](http://www.soundjuggling.com/about?ref=protein.xyz), alongside fellow Dane and musician [Soren Andreasen](https://soundcloud.com/sorenandreasen?ref=protein.xyz), comes [D.O.R.T.H.E](http://www.soundjuggling.com/projects/dorthe?ref=protein.xyz); a charming mechanical and electronic arrangement made from recycled materials that uses an algorithm based on letters and text to compose original music. Like some junk-yard jukebox that transforms written words into musical compositions, D.O.R.T.H.E is a captivating project that sits in line with recent experimentation into sounds and DIY mechanics. Such as [Sigma](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2013/10/sigma?ref=protein.xyz#.Unp3ZJRdePs), which, with the help of Leap Motion technology, registers body gestures to create audio and visual stimuli, D.O.R.T.H.E heralds an entirely new physiological understanding of how music can be made and composed.
