That was amazing, it reminds me of a video my dad showed me a while back, perhaps you guys can help me remember it.

It was of a young woman, who was playing an insturment that looked like a strange tube, she had a wand like thing that she would move towards and away from the tube and it would make music.

It's supposed to be really difficult but she handled it well and her father created the thing.

Any ideas?

I used to know a guy who built his own tesla coils and van der graaf generators. He subscribed to a low budget mensa "zine" devoted to amateur high voltage hobbyists. He had an exhibit once at a local bar of coins that he had shrunk with high voltages.
