It is rumored that Thomas E. tinkered around with the invention that would communicate with the dead....this is something I have thought about and it finally came into fruition....

Well done, how long did it take you to make ?
By failing to prepare, we are preparing to fail.

Thanx, This took roughly a week and a half to build in my spare time in the evenings - an hour or two here and there. I am in the middle of a ton of shows - am as tired as a hound dog in a lunesta factory...that's pretty tired!

Chuck, this is one of your coolest looking contraptions yet. I'm sure there will be those who are more knowledgeable than I who can pick apart the accuracy of the machinery, but I thought it was an awesome blend of antiquity and steam punk that would make it very interesting to a lay audience.
But...I wasn't fond of the voice. Ruined it for me. If the voice was a more distant whisper that was struggling to be heard...it would have boosted the creep factor up a dozen notches. You made a mysterious device, so I think you need a mysterious voice...
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

Very good point, the recording module can be easily re - recorded of any voice you wish. For a more mysterious presentation I would have a static like white noise overlay with a brief verbal message similar to what we know today as 'white noise' or something that is heard through 'Frank's Box', etc.
In this presentation I opted to use more of a slight comedy type presentation and matched the voice to fit this. I rewired the module to a more powerful speaker so whichever sounds are used it is fairly loud and can be heard. I am working on a cool table top steampunk effect currently of the famed German 'Bell' - this will be an anti - gravitational device which will give the illusion of time travel with objects demonstrated. This is in the beginning stages and I only work on my ideas in my free time so it may be awhile...I will post when completed. Keep the magic going! C. Caputo |
