Uh! This "instrument" is bizarre!

It called a Savart's wheel! The sound, Uhm noise?, it makes, some could find, perhaps, comical and of some interest, therefore to my OLF brothers!

It's played with a pick/plectrum and a dixie cup! How could you go wrong?

That was wild. Kind of a horror movie sound.

Creepy.

Not that I would pop a CD of this in the player and listen for hours, but I found it somewhat interesting and not at all unpleasant... At least not for the 15 seconds you get to hear.

I think that is why its "experimental", probably needs some more refinements

I have no idea how they produce this sound from this instrument.
