...except that it doesn't really resemble the look of a '60s Moog.
Nice attempt at a namedrop though.
Now, for 20 points, is it pronounced blewg, or blogue?
How charming and witty and fun!
Can it disemvowel?

Yeah, not exactly, if you're a synth purist. But it does have knobs and patch cords, and is, you know, black. But judging by the logo design - a 'Moog-inspired' look is what they were going for. Just trying to be clever.
It's still pretty sexy looking, whatever it resembles.
And it's most definitely blogue. :)
From the form factor, it's much closer to those cute little Blorg things than a gin-you-wine Bloog. Just add a mic and some speech-to-text code and turn it into a Blocoder.
Yeah, I'm done... but I want points when the guy does just that and starts gettin' awards at gallery shows.
Nice... I was thinking of doing an art installation which would be a real-time insult generator box where you push a button and your picture is taken, then it's uploaded to one of the nastier chans out there and the horrific responses are projected in front of you. Each time a response comes, hot air and steam blows out the top.
Calling it the "self-esteampunk".
"...except that it doesn't really resemble the look of a '60s Moog."
Actually looks more like a EMS VCS3 "Putney."

And what do you mean "useless", this could've saved William Burroughs lots of time, instead of always cutting up his writings and pasting them back together.
Yes, Brion Gysin and William S. Burroughs would be ecstatic with this. If you input The Third Mind, do you get the original texts?
