This assumes that they have to look at and touch their laptop, which isn't 
always the case. In most cases, I can close my latop lid and do everything 
with my MIDI controller - I can now with my new max system.  Also, some 
hardware loopers are also not particularly interesting to watch either.

engaging the audience.
