My Music Monday - Something a Little Different - Wintergatan - Marble Machine


I am always fascinated by machines, machines that make music are especially fun.  The first winter we were in Florida, the neighbor had a restored player piano, they welcomed me to play it from time to time.  

Do you need one of these?

  1. Oh my god. This is amazing. I wanted one until I saw him to start to actually PLAY different parts of the machine. I guess I'd have a lot to learn... and not enough years since I might practice for 100 and never get it.

  3. That was simply fascinating. When he would put is hand into the machine to adjust something I kept expecting it to bite him. Amazing.

  4. What the heck is that thing and who the heck thought of it!? If no assembly is required, I'll take one.

    1. Assembling that would keep you busy for years, a retirement project for you BH?

    It's very clever. Can I buy one in a flat pack at Ikea?

      I meant to add it looks like something from the 1927 movie Metropolis.
