THIS IS HOW WE DEFORM: MAKE NOISE "TELHARMONIC"



Inspired by the Telharmonium,  one of the earliest electronic instruments (designed by Thaddeus Cahill in 1897), and reduced to a 12 ounce, 14 HP Eurorack module courtesy Tome Erbe at Make Noise,  this diminutive, but fluently noisy module is a worthy addition to my Buchla boat (via the recently introduced Eurorack adaptor). Available from CONTROL,  the only electronic music store/hub that matters. BTW,  the original weighed between 7 and 200 tons in its two incarnations, and certainly brings to mind the existential dilemma of the first reptiles, the dinosaurs.
