Horseattack's camera work and soundtrack was nearly as kick-arse as the printer / driver combo.

Edit: The track is a remix of a Christopher & Raphael Just's Popper by Shinichi Osawa.

The track is on Shinichi Osawa's Teppan-Yaki: A Collection Of Remixes album. Unfortunately it isn't available in the Australian iTune's store. :(

I had assumed the link would be about a 3D printer that cranks out lego pieces. This is way, way more awesome.

Same here. Also, this reminds me of a TV program where it showed some Japanese hackers that hacked printers drivers so the motors synchronizes to tunes like super mario bros (couldn't google it for link). Coupling that with this would be super.

As mentioned in his notes, there was actually a lego plotter kit, although he didn't base his project on that.
