video of electromechanical musical instruments

[Jon]

These electromechanical musical instruments are the work of composer, musician, PhD candidate, and sound artist Koka Nikoladze.

I love the sound of tools, machinery, engines, and work being done, but these sounds are often regarded as noise, and not music. Nikoladze completely gets this. His work does the job of isolating and organizing these sounds into artistically-valid music, via custom-built mechanical music machines.
