Note to any future "Creepy Singing Android Head" builders: Synchronized eye movement is much more realistic and less disturbing by an order of magnitude or two.

Yeah, that was a little creepy... I think they could have done a better job on the eyes though:)

An interesting project would be combining a "creepy android head" with the compund eye tracker here:

This would allow the head to track & follow a hand or face and stare you right in the eye!
