Reed Ghazala, author of Circuit-Bending : Build Your Own Alien Instrument has released his latest creation: The Ghazala Thereglyph. He writes:
The Thereglyph is a “radiopool” instrument, my term for a radio-sensitive instrument meant to be placed within the RF ‘pool’ of an outside source.
Like the theremin, pitch and volume can be adjusted without touching, by means of hand proximity to the antenna and radio plate. But unlike the theremin, other circuit elements are brought forward to also act as RF sensitive modulators within the pool of radio emissions generated by a plasma globe.
This results in a monster theremin of sorts, capable of effects and voices Leon might have found surprising.
Bent audio is one of those things you either like, or you can’t stand. Either way, you’ve got to admit that Ghazala takes it to the limit in both build quality and out of this world sound. The device bent herein was a dinosaur game by an unspecified manufacturer.
