How-To:  Tesla “Spooky Spirit” radio

Instructables user mrfixits just posted this su-wheet luminiferous aetheric Tesla-punk tranceive-o-mogrifier doo-dad build. He explains it rather better than I:

The Spooky Tesla Spirit Radio is a crystal radio circuit in a jam-jar. It makes fun spooky sounds by responding to input from several types of electromagnetic sources. This non-powered radio plugs right into the computer sound-in jack, and makes use of audio software for real time sound effects.

    …I would totally buy a kit for this from the Maker Store.

    This device does not even closely resemble the device used by Tesla to try to communicate with extraterristrials. It was not made to communicate with spirits.
