The Jam Jar is a small light-responsive digital synthesizer made out of a couple of dollars worth of parts and housed in a jam jar. In this video I show it off and make some music with it using Ableton Live and a guitar.

check out my other projects:

This is the precursor to a much larger project called "Don't Talk Back", which I'll post videos of soon!

    lovely and warm sounding... is it just chance that it sounds "in tune" or have you got something clever going on?
