Theremins are antique electronic invention by a smart Russian fella, Leon Theremin, from years ago. You change the pitch by moving your right hand closer to or farther from the vertical antenna, and change the volume by moving your left hand to and from the loop. And you can play music! It’s wacky, makes the sound that you would hear in old movies when aliens appear or try to talk to you.

Some modern adaptations: Super Mario and Claire de Lune. (The latter played by Leon’s very own niece.)
