Beyond the Button

Thingamagoop: It bleeps and blinks.I ran across these fun toy synthesizers the other day while digging around in the projects that will be showcased at the Austin Maker's Faire.

You've got to watch the video to really get what this Thingamagoop does but it's safe to say it's frenetic and fun. These things got me thinking about little modular toy synthesizer components. It would be exciting to build things like this into a larger bench interface that let you play with the audio aspects of electricity and electronics.
