The Nellophone is a very weird musical instrument which has 30 different sized pipes to allow for 30 different notes. It works on a principle that a pipe of a given length will give out a note 1 octave below a pipe half its length (I think I got that the right way around). It measures 15 feet high by 12 feet across and it is played by standing in the middle beating the end of the tubes with paddles. It kind of reminds me of an instrument that the blue man group would play.
For $3499.95 you get the full set of pipes ready to build up with full instructions as well as 1 set of paddles to beat out the music. I cannot find a link to a demonstration, but if you do then feel free to pass it along and I will post it here.
