Robotic arm allows ‘cyborg drumming’

Georgians continue to take to the streets to demonstrate against draft legislation that they say would infringe on their rights and lessen the chances of Georgia being able to join the EU.

The controversial bill has attracted wide criticism and led to daily protests in the capital, Tbilisi. The EU said the move could hurt Georgia's prospects of one day joining the 27-member bloc.

Georgia has erupted in protest once again, as the ruling Georgian Dream party pursues a "foreign agents" bill in parliament – something that has left a question mark hanging over the country’s European ambitions. The EU granted the ex-Soviet nation candidate status to join the bloc last December.
