Thanks!  Actually, each bee is controlled by one spline for translation and
another for rotation.  I created a macro that generates a prism based on a
particular vowel sound ("ah", "ooh", etc), and some more splines for closed
mouths.  

All in all, this thing took three weeks to do (calendar weeks, that is - I
wished I would've kept track of actual hours spent working on it).  Editing
was done with Quicktime Pro, sound recorded on Opcode Vision DSP ($59
download version - quite the bargain!).  Yes, that's my retarded voice for
the talking bees; the buzzing in the background is supplied by my daughter.
