Whitney Music Box


Joe sent me this link today. This spinning combination of circles of different sizes, color and placement, all cross the line in certain patterns of chromatic scales. For example, on the first one on the page, in three minutes, the largest dot will travel around the circle once, the next largest dot will travel around the circle twice, the next largest dot three times, and so on. Seems boring? Not at all. Check it out to hear what kind of music it creates. Check out, var. 6 microtones, var. 8 chromatic 88 organ pipes, var. 15 stereo 120 and var. 17 hand cranked which lets you crank up the spin and make your own.
