Please post a recording, for those of us who don't want to have to set up whole programming environments to watch a Youtube video.

It loses much of the impact when you intentionally seek it out, I think. The lullaby loop midi I found to be more annoying than the errors.

Still, thanks for posting that - it's certainly interesting.
