I'm spending a lot of time on my Tumblr blog these days. WTG is more or less abandoned at this point. So, if you'd like to keep up....head on over to We Are Here To Go.
make a mellotron out of walkmans

Bre Pettis and Eric Beug create a mellotron-like instrument out of walkmans and then go crazy and hack a sequencer into an arduino!
The mellotron was widely used by bands like The Beatles. Check 'Strawberry Fields' for some prime mellotron work. Fun fact: Trent Reznor now owns the mellotron used in the recording. Throbbing Gristle built and played devices similar to Make's in the 70's.
