All good fun, but fear not, dear impoverished friends - there are no sounds here that you couldn't make with a cheap theremin (real, not one of those so-called "optical theremins") and a reasonably-priced digital guitar multi-effects pedal. We'll be doing that at Hands Off 2009 in August, and I expect Gordon will post some examples afterwards. "Next week – control your pianoforte with a sackbut!"

Indeed, you are conducting sound via circuitry with your body. Very cool! Thermin has a lot of potential as a controller and with a few foot pedals one could do some dazzling work, aye? It'd be like dancing the music. What you don't see though is the hugh pod of humpbacks gathering near his backyard. Actually, you'd look no more silly than a conductor before a symphony.
