The aforementioned email began with the title, “The Mother of All Doohickeys,” and right after that continued, “You have to see it to believe it!” I watched the above video before I read beyond this point. Just the image from the video, sitting there waiting for me to click on it, was too enticing for my mechanical mind to resist.

The balls being blown out and landing so precisely at just the exact right moment to create the musical composition was entertaining, to say the least. It is amazing to see the balls shoot into the air, land on their intended target (a percussion device) creating a musical sound, and continue to bounce precisely into return shoots, called catcher cones. Amazing! In fact, the email stated that it was, “Totally fantazmaglorious!!!” Yes, I spelled that right! I checked it three times!
