Musical Tesla Coils!
« on: May 05, 2010, 02:18:43 PM »
Some dude rigs up two Tesla oils and sets them to be able to play different tones.  Starts with a warmup then leads into Thus Spoke Zarathustra, also known as the theme from 2001 A Space Odyssey then leads into the Ghostbusters theme and then onto something else that I didn't quite recognize.  Anyway, it's super awesome!

Swear the one part sounded like music out of "Marble Madness". Was an old NES game.

Did a bit of digging into my NES ROM collection, and played through Marble Madness(takes about 10 - 20min). 4:10 to 5:08 is definitely from that game. Still awesome though haha.
