Theremin simulation with Wii Remote

Theremin is one of the fir electronic musical instruments and was created and patented by the Russian inventor Léon Theremin in the beginning of the 20's.

You can see how Theremin works watching this video lesson with Thomas Grillo:

UUsing this concept, Ken Moore created a hack that can control sounds with the Wii Remote, simulating the Theremin sound and other samples. For this experience there's also infrared LED floves and a Roland synthesizer.

Theremin is invented in 1919 by Leo Thermin which amazed audiences with its strange sound and its astounding means of controls. I think it is made for everyone, from beginner to professional. Lately, it is more popular with lot of bands using it though it was there for many years.
