An electromechanical sound machine sounds much more sophisticated than, say, a musical instrument. That’s exactly what artist Neil Mendoza has created. His electromechanical devices are capable of playing songs like George Harrison’s “Here Comes the Sun.”
The device called Rock Band, is kinetic sound art installation combining four instruments: a xylophone, a buzzing base, spinners, and slappers. Mendoza goes into detail describing how each part works like how the slappers, “slap the rocks with pieces of fake leather and provide some light percussion.”
Watch the video below to see the instrument in action and find more works on his website.
