Experiments

Here i post experimental instruments that i make.

The Spheric Harp is a a harp like instrument inspired by a bicycle wheel and the west african Kora. I think it has a sound similar to the voice of a sheep, quite percussive.

The Bicyclelyre is a bike wheel driven instrument played with slide steels. The instrument can be played by several musicians though only one controls the speed of the wheel. The one pictured here is the first prototype. It has since then been upgraded and excibited at Festival of Endless Gratitude 2020 in Copenhagen, Denmark.

The Doorbell Harpe, is an instrument installed above a door, that gets strung when you enter a room. It can be tuned a thousand different ways and can reflect your mood a given day.
