Truely a 21st Century, HomeMade One Man Band. With that and a busy street he will never have to get a job. Har har har. He is largely right, philospoically. Thomas said; Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Of course Albert also; Imagination is more important than intelligence. Yup… he jut might be a genius… Or a redneck – but 1 bridge at a time. What do YOU think, Jeff?

Oh my goodness… I can’t believe the sheer number of people here who haven’t obsessed over this like I have until now.

In reply to retepv. If you actually look at it closer (i.e. the video where he shows how that one works), you'll see that it uses a contact microphone with a bit of post/processing. No triggers anywhere.
