Eerie, spooky alien sounds. Does the Borg cube sound like this? [whatrock, Oct 22 2020]

I'm appalled that this does not yet exist.

Tesla Coil Hero, anyone?

Awesome.

I can see a time when the theramin replaces the vuvuzela as the annoyance of choice at soccer tournaments... [+]

sp: Theremin. But + for the idea!

Anybody who plays a theremin is a hero in my book. [+]

I was just reading 2 minutes ago how Neil Armstrong took a tape of theremin music to the moon.
-- pocmloc, Aug 28 2012


The theremin is unique among musical instruments in that it is impossible to have an 'air' version of it (like "air guitar").
-- hippo, Aug 28 2012


Wrong! Wave your hands in front of you whilst saying "wooo-aooo". Instant air-theremin.
-- pocmloc, Aug 28 2012


[hippo] - That is not quite true. The grossly self-indulgent Jean Michel-Jarre had a keyboard that was operated by breaking a light/laser beam around him. I think he playd it when he 'Played Houston1. I mean who plays an entire city for gawd's sake!?

+ too cool!!
-- xandram, Aug 28 2012


pocmloc, your source is obviously wrong. Neil Armstrong hasn't been to the moon in decades, let alone minutes ago.
-- RayfordSteele, Apr 21 2016


You know, I'd actually like it the other way around, play wii games with a theremin.

Now, that would be interesting - and possible. Sensing limb position by unstable near-field oscillators is practical, and in fact probably easier than image recognition technology like Kinect™ <Gargle, spit/>

Tempting. Free parking, cookie of the month club, a Swiss army knife on my left hand, and access to large, black big- bore weaponry.

Hmm... does the Cube also have a backhoe?
-- whatrock, Oct 23 2020


<Sound of replicator/>

It does now ...

/Cube with a backhoe/ most vivid mental image of the day.

I thought I was the first person to use that pun -_-
