Wintergatan - Marble Machine (music instrument using 2000 marbles)

quote [ Marble Machine built and composed by Martin Molin Video filmed and edited by Hannes Knutsson Costume designed by Angelique Nagtegaal Swedish band Wintergatan... ]

Swedish band Wintergatan has made a musical instrument out of 3000 marbles wood and metal. Something for fans of both music and tinkering. There are also a bunch of related build videos up on you-tube as well.

If you look closely at the floor, towards the end, you can see that this guy has clearly... lost his marbles.

Intel showcased their Atom processor in 2011 with a real life Pipe Dream demo. Animusic was the best.

If you check out his channel, he has a series of videos on the designing and building of this thing. He has a woodworking shop and does it all himself. This thing is in essence a programmable music box. Give it a full pentatonic scale keyboard with at least two octaves and it could play just about anything.

I want to hang out with this guy.
