All this talk of steam calculators had me pondering about fluidic amplifiers.
If you have never played a melodica, it's a wonderful experience. It's like playing a piano and a saxophone at the same time.
Fluidic amplifiers, amplifying a flow of air... there is only one conclusion.
Breath-controlled
church organ.

Wouldn't it be nice to say "our church organist
blows"? + |

That melodica thing looks like some kind of strange
digital accordion. Sounds like one, too. |

I'm visualizing something like a really oversized set of
bagpipes, here. |

It's not digital - the recording quality of the linked video is a bit poor - but it is a free-reed instrument like a harmonica or an accordion. Except unlike an accordion, you blow. And unlike the harmonica, it has a keyboard. |

We might build a special edition, just for you, which involves numerous air bags. However, the primary product will be slightly less drone-y and slightly more evil-genius-y. |
