yk10yk No, this is still the coolest. The marble machine is just a gimmick and cannot be used in actual concerts, just something to say “hey that looks cool” at.
No it’s not the coolest. Are you for real. If this relatively new instrument was actually liked by most people who heard it then it would have been used much more by musicians in solo, bands, and to create sound effects. It’s definitely an interesting, unique, and educational instrument. It’s just not inherently appealing like many mainstream instruments.
I couldn’t remember the name of the instrument, but I absolutely love that UA-cam knew _exactly_ what I wanted when I searched “Alien instrument hands” lmfao
I just watched the 1951 movie "The Day The Earth Stood Still" and this was the instrument used to create the sound of the spaceship. The spokesperson for the movie said that the producer had a very difficult time finding someone who knew how to play one.
I agree, but since i only found out about its existance as well, the overwhelming majority of people would probably not get what's going on, thus it will probably never happen in any mainstream horror movie. Would be a great scene tho!
Check out “The Haunted Carousel” here on UA-cam, the theremin is used in a very Mario-esque creepy manner (so not super creepy, but spooky nonetheless). It’s actual notated for an iPad theremin, but actually my school band is using a real one.
I never thought about it until just a few years ago but I had no idea what made that eerie music in 1950's sci-fi movies that scared the bejesus out of me when I was a kid. I asked a friend who was a musician and he told me about the theremin. What a clever device!
Such an amazing instrument. I just discovered it and the word "theremin" today while watching a UA-cam video on Danny Elfman concert. I saw a man moving his hands in eerie movements. I was looking for a string but I could not see one. I assumed a string was there; I just couldn't see it because of the darkness of the room. I could see myself experimenting with the theremin all day. Love the creepy sounds it can make.
Wow. That is some amazingly proficient playing. She's hitting an amazing level of control with the pitch, and using the shape of her hand for tones and semitones... so cool.
Narrator: "The musician moves his hands" Girl on screen: 🤨 Edit: guys chill out gender is allowed to be a little silly. This is not supposed to be political plus the channel description has "she" used to describe the person in question.
Hey dumb fuck, the channel owner is likely the broad in the video which means she provided her own examples over audio from an informative video about the instrument.
Absolutely incredible, the world of music and science never cease to be exciting, eye-opening and awe-inspiring. A compliment to the ingenious creator and a compliment to Carolina who expresses the ingenuity of this marvel of an instrument. The book the 'Disguise' by Hugo Hamilton has brought me here.
Amazing, only just learnt about this from a book by Dean Koontz: 'The Taking'. Hard to imagine how long it would take to learn to play this instrument!
Thank You Carolina - It's definitely on my bucket list to master this device. I will let you know soon and hopefully release a new composition with the instrument featured. Awesome Homecoming Instrument.
Scales. Lots and lots of practicing scales. That's how you get good at it. I play violin, that's another instrument where you have to learn how to play the actual notes themselves before you start connecting them together into a tune.
I would love to play this , every instrument that I have played I've nailed because my instructors kept telling me that I am really good at hearing an out of tune note or wrong note and I adjust it pretty fast and this seems fun and cool to play
A lifelong passion of Robert Moog, whose company began by building and selling theremins in the mid 1950s before he developed his modular synth. After losing control of his original company in the 70s to people who ran it into the ground eventually, Bob returned to the theremin, and the Moog Company continues to sell the instrument to this day alongside its synth lines. I see Carolina's instrument here is a Moog. It's a thing of beauty when played well as here.
That is the best theremin playing I've ever seen. I'm used to just seeing it used for silly sci-fi noises. I have the use of a digital theremin in Virtual Reality, I'm going to have to try a few things out on it now.
It sure would be nice if the narrator would have not kept saying ‘his hands’, ‘his ear’ when it is Ms. Eyck playing. It must be “a man’s world”… there you go! Your next hit can be James Brown.
That shit is so cool! I’ve seen Charlie Clouser play one while touring with Nine Inch Nails, I’ve seen Nikki Sixx play one during Motley Crue’s Red, White, and Crue tour, and definitely I’ve seen “ The Wizard” himself, Jimmy Page of Ked Zeppelin play one, too!
i can't be the only one who did some ~i n t e n s e~ digging to find out what this thing was after seeing in acnl :0 the thing that actually led me to this video was me asking google: what is the high pitched buzzing furniture in animal crossing lmao
a theremin is a transdermal device inserted into the base of the neck and is used by the salipsi ray for telepathic communication between other species including humans, its a pretty old device but it gets the job done, its also used by many other trans galactic entities.
As an electrician I get this entirely 😂 I have always watched creature movies and scary movies from the 30's forward. Didn't know the instrument that made the sound. Now too old to learn it. I wish I had. Halloween would be a blast!
I had always wondered how one judged the pitches. Now I see,it has to be mostly muscle memory. Couldn't you mark the rod at the base? I'm a guitar player so I'm pretty spoiled. I really thought because of this imprecision it was only good for simple atmospheric stuff,but here you are playing classical on the thing,you are SO good.
Not only is the instrument itself totally kooky and the sounds it creates unique and haunting, but the story of the man who invented it is very bizarre as well!
Heard it in a 1930s movie, but it was invented 8 years before television. Now, guitars exist that fingers of both hands can play separate notes, and i still can't whistle spaghetti western whistling tunes. Possibly pressing wet lips on electric cord wires makes the most modern instrument, or missing a conga drum beat when your legs are wrapped around it. Be the FIRST to try!

If you would like to understand how to use them you would first need to contact either the salipsi ray or the dorax but the dorax can be quite menevolent so do take caution, also the best time to meet either would usually be on Saturdays in the nevada dessert ,or better yet on july 7 of each year and july 8th every leap year because that's their homeworld celebration day, and make sure you have a glass of gasoline for them to drink just to be polite 😄
I love my theremin but I haven't touched it in years.
Good one
Now is a great time to pick it back up, considering the Covid19 quarantine.
@@kellybramlet7996 Is that a woosh?
@@kellybramlet7996 U PLAY BY NOT TOUCHING IT
This is gold
The Theremin is the coolest instrument in the world , and thinking this electronic marvel was created in the 1910s is amazing .
yk10yk
No, this is still the coolest. The marble machine is just a gimmick and cannot be used in actual concerts, just something to say “hey that looks cool” at.
SunED MMX disagrees.
@@yk10yk No i don't like the marble machine and don't think it is cooler than the Theremin.
Terrible sound imho. I do not like to listen to it period.

That's actually amazing. I never knew such an instrument existed. Quite beautiful.
I know you posted long ago. I first heard this instrument in the opening music for some old Dr. Who episodes, but I didn't know what it was.
1:27 *_BRO SHE GOT US LIKE 30 TIMES IN THIS VIDEO_*
The theramin is alt-right Nazi instrument confirmed
this is the funniest comment I've ever seen in my life lmaoooooo
I'm pretty sure a lot of people didn't get it but I salute to those who did
Hahahahahahah.
Really i dont get it
I feel like a kid learning about something new!!!!
Amazing instrument!
I couldn’t remember the name of the instrument, but I absolutely love that UA-cam knew _exactly_ what I wanted when I searched “Alien instrument hands” lmfao
Big mood
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I feel like this would've been Nikola Tesla's instrument of choice had he played...
Haha AGREED🔥
I didn't know there was a instrument like that, just fantastic, just fantastic, i love it.
I just watched the 1951 movie "The Day The Earth Stood Still" and this was the instrument used to create the sound of the spaceship. The spokesperson for the movie said that the producer had a very difficult time finding someone who knew how to play one.
How old are you?
This would be the creepiest thing ever if it played itself in a horror film.
wow yeah
I agree, but since i only found out about its existance as well, the overwhelming majority of people would probably not get what's going on, thus it will probably never happen in any mainstream horror movie. Would be a great scene tho!

The theremin is actually played in some episodes of the creepy TV series ''Hannibal''
Wow this is incredible! I never even KNEW this existed, and to think it was created so long ago is really mind boggling.

I need one of these so that I can act like I'm playing the world's tiniest violin.
is that a RESERVOIR DOGS reference ~!?? I would love to see that KEEP MUSIC ALIVE!!
ImBlueOnPiano damn okay Mr Krabs I see you 😂
Before the appetizer finds you
Sure its good to show off. The sound remains terrible. Who cares
@@auttark9815 bruh 💀

Haha when you expect it the least 👌😂

It’s 2020. Standard labels are going extinct 😂😂
Great catch. That was critical to me understanding the instrument.
(that's sarcasm, in case you're not quick enough to get it)
Agree with HAC. This woman is AMAZING! Please teach your children how to play this instrument!
You can put it next to a wall and put tape to mark where to put your hand when beginning (similar to violin)

Interesting explanation. I've always been fascinated by the music produced using this instrument. 🤩
Theremin turned 100 years old this year. :)
Just like Biden.
Amazing, only just learnt about this from a book by Dean Koontz: 'The Taking'. Hard to imagine how long it would take to learn to play this instrument!
I admit I have never ever heard of this musical instrument before. 👁👁❤🎼
What a strange device but wonderful. 😃🎶
I especially like her technique. I've never seen this 'fingering' style of approach. She is very likely also a string player. I'm impressed!!

Nobody knows, my sorrow"

Now you just need to work on your grammar.
@@lancetaylor7642 If he learns how to play the theremin, learning the English grammar will be a walk in the park.
Amazing! I'd love to try this unique instrument out.

The theremin is amazing.
I went to a Lord Huron concert and they used one of these during Way Out There and I had to find out what the heck this thing was.
This is insane!!!! This woman is very valuable to rest of the world :)

Searching for the instruments used in the Score for "The Day The Earth Stood Still".. WOW...!
Yes indeed !~ I have MANY Rare 45 Theremin songs on my channel because of this ! So unique, & used in SO many Movies, & no one knows !
Big Bang theory show got me here, (season4, ep 12)
Marvellous instrument
exactly what happened to me tonight lol
My dad had one for a little bit when I was 7 and I wish go in and actually was ok on it. I would play with it almost every day and kinda miss it
Now that is one unique instrument. I'd love to try it.

A theramin was used in Led Zeppelin's song "A Whole Lotta Love" 💘
Also the 1960s Dark Shadows soap opera
This is Sound Bending
Whoa this is the coolest thing I've ever seen .you pluck frequency waves like strings .
Wow, what a fascinating instrument.

the thing that actually led me to this video was me asking google: what is the high pitched buzzing furniture in animal crossing lmao
I’m seriously considering buying one, I watched the Ted talk and feel like I need to try one myself at least once in this life!
Love how the narrator keeps saying he when it is in fact a she playing it....
What happened I thought gender was a social construct?
BlackHayateTheThird I know, right?! driving me nuts
Triggered?
Who got here thanks to Mark Passio?
he was saying player, so he as the player.
Smiling Friends (TV Show on Adult Swim) Brought me here with a reference to a Theremin.

Now I understand Theremind from My Singing Monsters
This is the ultimate trombone
this is it bro, this is what humanity needs to do
This is excellent! Thank you.
this is one of the coolest instruments ever
Thanks for this! I never knew about this until I looked up Midsomer Murders. 💕
Fascinating!
I love this instrument, but is very expressive, like all the instruments
As an electrician I get this entirely 😂 I have always watched creature movies and scary movies from the 30's forward. Didn't know the instrument that made the sound. Now too old to learn it. I wish I had. Halloween would be a blast!

got an open theremin v3 which works with arduino, gonna play and practice it well enough that encourages me to buy a proper one
Beautiful sound
I was driving thru skid row the other day and saw a guy playing the theremin. Except he didn’t have a theremin.
Thanks for the video, we definitely owe you, and your player, a beer! Well done old boy!
Most unique instrument ever.
This instrument was featured in a Ryan Gosling Film about Neil Armstrong’s life. WOW.
This is amazing
I came to know about this instrument because of those Amazing facts written at the last page of Registers..😁
This is basically what I do when I play air guitar.
This instrument is very unique 😍😍😍❤️
I need this.
Not only is the instrument itself totally kooky and the sounds it creates unique and haunting, but the story of the man who invented it is very bizarre as well!
I am going to play store and download this 😁☀
It's really amazing 🐝🙏
SO COOL
Fascinating!!!
Human technology never cease to amaze me
I have one and it plays every night,turns out its just a spider playing while we forgotten to unplug it😓
Mind Blown!!! 😱
How am I just now hearing about the theramin?? This thing is _incredible_
Heard it in a 1930s movie, but it was invented 8 years before television.
Now, guitars exist that fingers of both hands can play separate notes, and i still can't whistle spaghetti western whistling tunes.
Possibly pressing wet lips on electric cord wires makes the most modern instrument, or missing a conga drum beat when your legs are wrapped around it.

She is incredible!
Look at her short hair, so long ago! This proves she looks always wonderful. So talented and beautiful ❤
I love the theremin on Portishead’s ‘Mysterons’
Google arts and culture game got me to discover the theremin and I am 30 . It's unfair to know to late. It is amazing and damn . It's coooooool
Now do The Day The Earth Stood Still. :)
does it come right handed?
How come I never knew about this until now?! Farout!
Wow her movements remind me so much of my auntie. She suffered from Parkinson disease.

And Jim Parsons learned to play this just because he knew Sheldon was the kind of guy so extra that this would be his instrument of choice
very impressive!
No touch technique is excellent during this pandemic.
Fantastic!
You just gotta love it - no strings attached.
Today is my first day of knowing about this instrument
It was amazing, and as my teacher said it was « immatérielle », ou « la voix des anges »
That is cool as hell!!
