 Theremins are so cool! This is sort of sound track like, in a 1970s soft porn sort of way. I can picture a big breasted woman, running topless, in slow motion, through a shallow stream. With those nipple clamps on!
I sometimes wish I had a real two antenna theremin, a Moog, but those cost real money and take real talent - the modular one I can put through a quantizer so it automatically plays in key if I want.

The rest of that sounds like you need a few minutes alone, so I'll leave you to it.

Love this one - especially the musical nipple-clamps. :bueno: The tape loop sounds class too - sweet distortion.

*ping!*

Nice. :applause:

 Also 100 Grit is a mad distortion.
I might get one….. or not…. Because I need to stop putting distortion (and bit crush) on everything
I can get it to distort from a light rasp to total annihilation, but the thing I can't do yet is get the filter part of it to make sense as to which CV goes to which knob and where to stick a patch cable for a simple lfo sweep. I might have to break down and RTFM some day when my brain is working.

 Well, that is cool. Is the distortion intentional?
The first few notes had me thinking a resample of one of my songs. :lol:

Seems to me that that setup could produce a squalling cat fight really well.
I don't mean that in a bad way either.
I hit the tape hard and used an old tape with a few wrinkles in it, intentionally. The melody distortion was intentional but poorly handled as I have a mid/side encoding module that I've only used a little so I kind of blew it there - I wanted a clean center with some crispiness at the sides for a hint of age/lofi but the sides overwhelmed things.

Just find them in the ground like everyone else, silly.

 Magical sounds, it's cool how you challenge yourself with all these exceptional ways to create these. :respect:
Thanks, though sometimes the methods can get rather silly - for an example, see my next one, which doesn't exist yet as I need to do some wiring and buy a potato.

 If those clips were meant to go on fingers there’d be 5 …. Put them on your Nipples.
Ha! But the contacts are too far back from the tip to reach unless your nips are like thimbles. They were actually designed for electro-stim of ones earlobes using a tens machine, but as long as you get one with a jack identical to a mini-stereo headphone jack it'll work.

Thank you!

The trick I use on 1-camera video is to fake it. All the main shots (and the zooms) from the main angle were recorded live along with the music so it matches up once you slide the mix around to replace the crap audio from the camera. All the other angle shots were done after the fact (sort of like lip syncing without lips) for showing details and alleviating the boredom of a single shot that just goes on forever.
