Exploring Senses artists David Allistone and Christopher Willatt have been working together to design an easy to construct and Toy Hack embeddable Theremin sound device. Chris has been working on the electronics side of this project and David have been experimenting with embedding the Theremin into scrap toy parts to make new bespoke artefacts. David also introduced the push button on/off activation switch into the Theremin circuit, which provides the user more control over the Theremin's on/off state.
David has made two versions of the Toy Hack embedded Theremin;
K9 Theremin
Flying Robot-head Theremin
The Flying Robot Head Theremin is more like a spaceship and have a Toy Hack ground support vehicle to provide a stable platform. In the future I can see the Flying Robot Head Theremin developing into a fully fledged robot, possibly connecting its robotised body and limbs with the small magnets that Louis recently purchased.
