Something to go here Posty post is posty: Something else to go here
Not quite sure where I would post a thread about this... but anyway...

I was browsing Youtube, when I came across some videos of people playing this instrument, and now I want one.



It is played by moving your hands around a pair of antennae.

It was also the instrument used for those crazy old sci-fi movies.
Now, discuss.

Also, if anyone has any instructions on how to make one, I would like to see some please.

Funny Tyty. When you mentioned instruments in IRC, I was thinking guitar or something. Never thought of the theremin. Sorry, I don't know how to play, but I know of a friend who does own a starter kit. I'll ask him some stuff tommorow and see if I can hook you up.

Zelda on a tehremin

just in case no one knows what we're talking about or if they want to see how it's played while still hearing a cool song.

So I'll ask today. I'm guessing you want to know the cost of the instrument, how hard is it to play, etc etc. I'll be sure to ask.

You've never seen that before? Youtube more.

Also.. Don't Worry, Be Happy.
I only Youtube when I'm eating something that requires both hands. But I was referring more to the instrument itself.

You can always try the Virtual Theremin, but it takes a while to calibrate.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
