This is one of those old video game reproductions that you plug straight into a TV. I gutted it after deciding I have enough versions of Pac Man to play with, (super pac man really sucks!) And built my own synth! It's another 40106 based synth using four of the six schmitt triggers for main oscillators and one for the Lfo. It has a light sensor for one of the main voices and a "rate" knob for the Lfo speed. I was able to make it run on the original set up of four AA batteries in the compartment underneath and as you can see the blue knob that I use for wintergreen altoid almost matches perfectly. It has a 1/4 inch out to plug into any amp or mixer and i used the menu light for power. The menu button works to change the LFO into a swooping triangle instead of a square wave and the red trigger button makes the sound come out.

Hello kitty theremin
Hey check this out! I think I'm a totally talented artist.
Pachelbel's Canon in D on my Hello Kitty Theremin!
And Part one of a series of films on free styling, which is vastly different from freestyling.
555 square wave oscillator with a light sensor. Simple and beautiful. I thought about what to do with this one and I decided that it would be cool to just keep it plain and simple. I know it doesn't sound anything like cannon in d I just thought it would be funny to boldly title the video that in a blatant attempt to get more veiws.

Teenie genie freestyle
I was doing a demo for my hello kitty synth and I felt like making something for fun. I know It's not technically a freestyle that's just the catchy title. It's part of an old song of mine done in a slightly different way. I used my 12v lunch box rockin' fossils amp and my voice of music harmonica microphone, and of course my lowrey teenie genie. The amp is for sale.

blue sea moss monster
This is a one bit sea moss pattern generator with a low pass filter. I housed it in a stationary box from a dollar store spirograph set. I love the way it came out. Recorded on July 31, 2013.
And here's a before pic:
