Made me think of "the beam" which then spun off to a Garth Hudson soundtrack for an exposition I saw in 1980 at the LA Science Museum... Thanks for the link and subsequent mental ride![]()

Listening to that on my computer speakers with their 3" woofer is an exercise in the absurd.
This got me going on a string of videos & recordings of Rinat Ibragimov, the great double bassist, and then Yo Yo Ma.![]()
I'm 6 foot 2 and played the upright bass for 7 years and can honestly say there's no way 1 person could play that. There would have to be one with a bow and one on the finger board. Still neat though. There's been some crazy instruments made over the many years.
The Stroh violin comes to mind. A doctor Seuss instrument.

Nadya Suleman could easily play that thing.![]()
Anyone could play it as it is fretted with mechanical levers.
