Make a Theremin – Weekend Project Podcast

This weekend make a theremin, the first electronic musical instruments that you don’t have to touch to play! Leon Theremin invented this in 1918 and Bolshevik leader Lenin liked it enough to take lessons and ordered 600 to be made and sent around the world to show how awesome Russian electronic music was. I made this one using the Harrison Instruments Minimum Theremin kit and put it in a housing that a friend gave me. It works and it’s really fun to play!
