Mr. Engywuck the Barrel Organ Man
I´m making music with an electric barrel organ man.
I was fascinated by Wintergatan's Marble Machine and started building my own instruments. Right now I´m playing mostly on two instruments. Mr. Engywuck, an automatized punchcard music box, and capybara, a 12-in-one mechanical instrument.
