Circuit bent mechanical furby sequencer - The Furby Gurdy!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лют 2008
- Each furby has 4 controls: mute, crash, loop and reset. The handle turns 8 cams which operate corresponding microswitches to create interesting rhythmic patterns. Part of the 'setting up' section at the beginning has been fast forwarded. Please commission me to make lots more of these machines!
Whacko! If an antiques dealer sold one of these in a hundred years time I wonder if it would need re Furby-shing!
Imagine circuit bending one of those animatronic cartoon character bands like they had at Chuck E Cheese.
i dont think that whould work, those run on air compression, and use showtapes for the audio, so im pritty shure you cant circuit bend em
they arent electronic
@@autumnmissepic8498 you can circuit bend the animatronic controller, but the controllers are super expensive
@@guys-in9vd huh neat
any other fellow cec fans here?
This is either insanity or genius. The jury is still out.
Why Not Both?
A spectacular curiosity that defies description....does this furry sequencer have any place in the modern world? I think not, however this machine/apparatus may hold the key to alternate & parallel realities. In a thousand years this device will be thought of as an alien artifact and held in a secret government warehouse next to the cheese strings
+Geoff Williams On the contrary... I could see something like this being used as a secret coding device in the military or similar such application.
Now all my fondest nightmares can come true!
This is genuinely fascinating, this feels like something you'd see in those retro style horror video series.
I love this thing. I love the housing too. And I love the fact that it is a mechanical sequencing device rather than electronic.
I LOVE IT!!!
Very, VERY unique! Excellent work here. Talk about thinking outside the 'box'!! Well done......
Thanks very much! Quite an old project - it was made about 11 years ago, but I still have it in a box somewhere...
one of the most INSANE BenT THINGS I have seen.
WHOA!!!
It's currently on display at the Royal Festival Hall Clore Ballroom (London, UK) - come and have a go with it at 2pm this Saturday! (Sat 24/4/2010)

Wish I was into furbies back then, would have absolutely loved to see it
Did anybody make music with it
This is so f'd, but equally awesome. I can only imagine how crazy this would make me in the right (or wrong) circumstances, i.e. after a long debauched night.
Wow, this is art. It sounds like one of those numbers stations from the Cold War. If you could get it to play 'The Internationale' or the later National Anthem of the Soviet Union, I'd have a panic attack.
this video was such a big part of my childhood back in 2008! i still collect furbys to this day and come back to watch this sometimes :')
Thanks so much for that comment! I still have the Furby Gurdy in a box somewhere.
@@thenervoussquirrelyou should make comeback video!
A Furby Gurdy?
That's disturby.

My favorite comment
remember mama gurdy
The first sound is the yawn from Furby baby. Recognized it immediately.
Such a neat video! Thanks for posting!
Wow, this was so many years before LMNC even started his youtube channel..
how cool is this, absolutely brilliant idea and nicely done
This is incredible. Amazing invention!
took a while to get going.. But then everything I expected from a circuit bent mechanical furby sequencer. Great stuff
This is so AWESOME!!!! Please make more!
Sounds like something I would heard on a Pink Floyd album. O.o
I can't stop crying-laughing at this.
Roxy Beauford
Just stop. This has to stop.
this is the coolest thing i've seen in a really long time
Dude that sounds sick!
you fricking genious. how i wish i had the baility and attention span to abuse electronics so.
This is beautiful
this is the coolest thing i've ever seen
Beautiful.
That's totally awesome!
really nice work.
This is what we call furbstep
The world needed this
This is legitimately unnerving
fr hshahifkj
So that was... completely awesome.
They are toys. They are to play with. How you play with them is up to the user :]
This is the future! I love it!!!!
my mom just said "that person has too much time on his hands!"
hahahhaha
AWESOME!!! I want one!!!
Dystopic steampunk supernova music box.
Poor furbies
I like this idea!
Sehr schönes, aufgeräumtes Design!
Thanks very much, but Tim Hunkin is actually the modern day Tim Hunkin! Check out the new sculpture that he has done for London Zoo...
Wow, That's awesome! I reckon you're a modern day Tim Hunkin.
What a fantastic machine. I'm glad to see someone mention Tim Hunkin, he's quite a hero of mine.
If I had the cash mate I'd surely commission you to build me one of these. I do hope however to learn how to do this myself at some point. :)
damn that's awesome!
I want crank powered synth cyborg techno penguins in my dresser draws that make glitch pop electro noise art when I open up the cupboard! Or am I just thinking of The Witch The Lion And The Wardrobe?
So that's where the sounds from portal came from!
I like that it has a wheel like a barrel organ
Awesome.
if a furby is a computer, that would be a supecomputer.
AWESOME
terrifying
Freakin sweet man
this is pretty effin cool... gotta say
It's like a fever dream...
OMG... I want one
good work
that is a handsome machine
Awesome-Insane-Noisy-Thing!!!! 8:-P
I noticed that some of them had a hard time moving.
crazy!!!...i love it.. :D
Thats amazing....
morgulbrut yeah I know
sweet CJ one year later it's still amazing af.
morgulbrut I agree please go on my channel and subscribe please
Should put an annotation about changing it to 240p, because it started up when I came here, and popped my speakers scaring the crap out of me.
this is circuit bending at its finest
The song of hell is finally real
look ma no computer
Mechanical Furby Sequencer...
I never expected that phrase to exist.
jjjf
poor furby babies
most excellent. ever seen the furby pool? a crazy installation with hundreds of these things embedded into a seamless wall. google it. you'll be glad you did. make more!
dude this rocks! That was a very cool project, How long did you take to make it? It sounded pretty good though, Keep it up man.
DJ. Sonicwave
At one point it starts to sound like the aliens from Close Encounters of The Third Kind-(the uncut version.)
Haha, awesome!
Reminds me of Oneohtrix Point Never
this kind of looks like the apartment that the furblings on the furby boom app live in
All part of Tzneetch's plans
Thumbs up if that sound at 0:03 scared the shit out of you
Watch in 240p to get the sound.
A design that is "Completely" beyond me!
haha
the sound is working
wow i love ok computer
I saw this on Make. This mess rules, because it made a really cool sound track. I was just talking about furby's the other day too... wierd huh?
ROFL LMAO!! Thanks for Making My Day!! :)
You're welcome - very glad you enjoyed it!
i have a possesed furby!
Thumbs up if that sound at 0:03 scared the shit out of you.
I remember this not having audio
That's right, it went through a weird phase for a few months of only playing the audio under certain conditions. Seems okay now though.

i thought it was like youtube's content ID muting system they had back in the day in which they don't have
it's tape loop of a furby choir
Why is this not playing the theme to Close Encounters of the Third Kind?
Really amazing work. For a more primitive approach to performing with bent Furbys, check out the Furby Youth Choir video I posted last October.
what would something like this cost to commission sir?
YESSSSSS
Laura Marx h
What a beautiful abomination.
New music instrument
Brilliant mate, nothing like circuit bending electronics like this, it's like a rough sequencer,
Furby singers
Please make a CD!
oh god, 𝓉 𝒽 𝑒 𝓂 .
also are you copying my car radio yes it loves buzzing for a reason
creepy and interesting
No, as that would make intricate soldering too difficult.
Furby malufunction simulator
sounds like the start of a fucking death grips song or something lmao
Try bending one of the new ones
