I dunno man. If you actually make a better machine you'll have taken up 2 spots in the 7 wonders of the world, and that's just too much power for one man to have.

Here it is 2024, 8 years after this was originally posted and it still blows my mind. The musical timing and the mechanics behind it are just incredible.

[@kallinemartins]

When I was about 8, 9 years old, I had a reoccurring dream where a drop of something fell into a funnel that ignited a machine. Then, this machine started moving, puffing and working, and I'd wake up with an awful sensation of watching something that didn't have an ending. I'm autistic and I have a terrible need for closure. I felt so bad with those dreams that I'd feel nauseous through the entire day, and they happened quite often. Once I grew up, the dreams stopped, but I still remember those in particular because my need for closure was never met. Today, April 17th, 2024, I just found this video. I feel like this was the machine I was dreaming about. I finally have closure. Thank you so much for this.

Super, super cool piece of gear and what a wonderful imagination! I love Wintergan videos! As of recently, I've been looking around KZbin to see what kinds of things people are doing with old tech and in particular, music related. I have an unlisted video where I'm using a Commodore 64 to play a synth solo over one of my instrumental pieces. Should be made public and discoverable in less than a week. The Commodore has the SID chip inside, which is part of what made it a great seller back when, starting in around '82. I'm playing my C64 via a guitar volume pedal at my foot to transition through scale notes. The pedal is connected to the joystick/paddle port on the paddle pins. Scales are stored in a que and selected by the computer keyboard during playtime. Hopefully, the vintage computing community will think it's as cool as I think it is. The software is 99.98% my creation. Thanks for this video!! It's quite inspiring to others in like-minded engineering.

Can you imagine the amount of trial and error that went into this machine? That's dedication. Also, I love the fact that he used some Lego pieces to build this. The man's a genius.

[@dannyr333]

He truly is a genius. What a mind!!!!

He said in another video that this machine is a failure i would love to see what he considers perfect

[@jeremysmith7176]

Dude is already designing the third version after giving up on the second.

[@rookieboi5653]

It's hilarious because this was actually a one test run. He said the machine retired right after playing this song, as it just downright failed completely.

THANK YOU! For 100M VIEWS :) I cant believe plywood gears are so popular. You all have great taste. And my humbleness has travelled into hiding somewhere far away apparently. Occupational hazard when you pass 100 MILLION VIEWS AAAAAAAAA (thank you, it means the world to me.)

[@darcybrooks5691]

POV: Exploring through the misty Forrest and suddenly you find yourself at a wooden cabin. The only thing strange is that there is music coming from inside. When you enter there is just a smartly dressed man with headphones inside with a wooden machine, no other furniture. He pays you no mind as he continues with his jam. You notice that the music is being made from marbles being dropped in different places. Your interest is peaked, what do you do?
