Optron: Brilliant instrument of noise
02 Oct 2008
Improv musician Atsuhiro Ito wields a flickering noise contraption called the “Optron” (or “Optrum”), a miked-up fluorescent light tube he plugs into an array of effects pedals and plays sort of like an electric guitar. The Optron is featured in some Sony Walkman commercials.

Whoa…very very cool! Kinda makes Obi Wan’s light saber look like a child’s toy. :)
