Who knew that such a small box, looking much like your everyday radio, could make such eerie - and sometimes painfully high-pitched - tunes?


A little about the history of theremins...


...and a little about their workings.


"I'm serious, the fish was this big!"


What do theremins look like? This (intact)...


...and this (not so intact).




A couple of demonstrations on how to play the theremin...


... and then people stepped up to have a go at making some tunes.
























It went pretty well.


Tomas keeps a nervous eye on James' performance.


Afterwards, a few more people had a go and experimented...


...while others decided pizza sounded pretty good.
