MIDI, first established back in 1983, is the defacto standard for digital music notation. MIDI messages are relatively easy to understand and generate – and open up a variety of interesting project ideas using a microcontroller.

Also – MIDI makes for an excellent pet name.;)

Halloween Pumpkin
Scary Pumpkin!
by lady ada
Here is a quick project for an electronic halloween pumpkin. With a bit of hacking a $1 plastic pumpkin is upgraded: a sensor embedded in the nose detects when people get close and will play scarey sounds and animates LEDs on the face. The sounds are stored on an SD card so its easy to change and customize what the pumpkin says, while the code is written for an Arduino so its easy to modify the behavior. I'm going to have this pumpkin outside my door to freak out the little kids who go to daycare nearby. Boo!
