A novel musical instrument (101) comprises at least one tunable string (102), a holding device (130) for holding the at least one string (102), an electrically or electronically operated excitation device (116, 116') for contactlessly exciting the at least one string (102), a sound-producing body (108) for acoustically emitting the vibration of the string, and an interface (113) for delivering a signal for the excitation device (116, 116'), whereby the signal is produced independently from the at least one string (102). The excitation device (116, 116') permits the excitation of string vibrations with sufficiently large amplitudes so that the sound-producing body (108) can emit tones with sound levels located at least in the range of known acoustic string instruments. A bridge (112) is placed between the sound-producing body (108) and the at least one string (102) in order to transfer the vibrations of the string to the sound-producing body (108). The electroacoustic musical instrument (101) has the quality of resonance capability or of discrete overtones, and permits a synthesis of the acoustic sound beauty with electronic versatility. |

A musical instrument or multimedia input device is disclosed. User input is by hitting or striking water in order to produce an at least partially transient acoustic disturbance, vibrations, or change in the water. In one embodiment rigid pipes of various lengths or diameters emit fluid for being struck by a user at an open end of each pipe. The other end of each pipe is connected to an elastic tubing or other elastic medium, such as a diaphragm or bulb, resulting in a hydraulic resonator. In another embodiment the resonators are formed from variously sized bottles or flasks encased in cement, except for the mouths of the bottles. Each hydraulic resonator may be fitted with a sensor that senses the vibrations in the water and amplifies the vibrations into a sound reproduction system, such as an entirely acoustic impedance matcher or an electrical amplification system. |

An instrument in which an acoustic or otherwise measurable disturbance of change is made in physical matter is disclosed. In one embodiment an oscillatory vortex shedding phenomenon is formed in water, in association with each of a plurality of finger holes. Water flows past a branch point where it can either flow over a labium, edge or the like in a resonant pipe, or out a finger hole, the finger hole being the path of lesser resistance to the water. Obstruction of the finger hole forces the water past on underwater sound production mechanism. Blocking water from coming out of a given hole produces a given hole, which, in some embodiments, is electrically amplified by a hydrophone. In one embodiment there is a further processing of each hydrophone signal. Embodiments with various kinds of acoustic or optional pickups are also disclosed. |

Martin Schumann |
A musical instrument that produces whistle-type tones responsive to the impingement of sunlight or other source of electromagnetic radiation upon one or more radiation-absorbent porous-to-air, generally disc-shaped generator member or members disposed interiorly and in the lower half of a vertically oriented transparent or partially transparent tube with angled open ends. The generator member or members may be in the form of a wire mesh or gauze. In a preferred embodiment, Fresnel lenses are employed to focus sunlight on the generators contained within a plurality of tubes of differing lengths that are grouped together to form a musical instrument suitable for display in public places for the entertainment and scientific edification of the public. |
