Brendan O’Connell ’08 designed a rather bizarre instrument while at Wesleyan called an “Osc-A-Lot” (osc as in oscillations), based partially on the oscillator sound generators in Wes alum Nic Collins‘ book Handmade Electronic Music.
It looks kind of like a balding Medusa’s head, or a tangle of electrostatic vines, and sounds like what either of those might if you added some shrieking rainforest animals with laser guns.
Check out this crazy thing in action:
