    Default NMC: The Marble Machine, very fascinating take on making music

    I apologize for the lack of mando content, but this is kinda cool IMO. If this has been posted here before, forgive me, but I found it to be a very fascinating take on making music so I thought I'd share:



    Its very easy to get sucked into the accompanying "how it works" videos as well as how he is improving the machine... I wasted a good 45 minutes just now going down the YT rabbit trail.

    Enjoy.

    I believe it has, sometime in the last 2 or 3 years (I can't find it via search - must've been just an embedded video with no text description), but IMO it's still cool and I always enjoy watching this kind of thing. Thanks for posting it!

    The amount of thought that went into creating that instrument (to me) is mind boggling.
    Thanks for posting that.

    For some reason my expectations were not very high going into that, but it was totally cool! It will NOT be my next musical instrument, however! Can you imagine MMAS? Oh, the horror!

    I was thinking the same... you get a glimps if that if you watch some of the sequential "how it works" videos.
