Abstract:
1. A polyphonic instrument comprising: a housing containing a body of fluids for said polyphonic instrument, such that said fluid body is in a liquid state; a plurality of tone wheels disposed in said fluid body, such that a series of said tone wheels disposed in said fluid body are arranged in graduated units; a series of struts cantilevered from a side wall of said housing corresponding in quantity to said tone wheels disposed in said fluid body; a motor coupled with an output shaft for driving said tone wheels disposed in said fluid body; an array of transducers disposed within the housing; an audio amplifier system outside the housing and operatively connected to said transducers; whereby when the motor activates the tone wheels, the friction level between the tone wheels and the fluid body generates a sound which is detected by the transducer and then output to an audio amplifier system.
