Mechanical orchestra made of guns
Pedro Reyes made a robotic orchestra out of dismantled guns. It's controlled with Ableton Live.
There's also brief shots of a bass, a violin, and a flute made of old guns.
The ANS synthesizer
The ANS synthesizer , imagined in 1938 and built in 1958 by Evgeny Murzin . It is controlled by glass discs that have the arrangement printed on them. It was used most notably on the soundtrack to Andrei Tarkovsky 's film Solyaris . A curious fact is also that this thing is 720-note (or should I say pitch) polyphonic! Also worth checking is this interesting article on the ANS. Update: now a virtual version of the ANS is available for everyone to play with!
