Hacking a Furby into a musical Instrument: The “Furby Gurdy”
Someone has created a mutant hurdy gurdy out of 4 Furby toys (as if a hurdy gurdy isn’t mutant enough already). It’s got all sorts of glitching controls, sequencing and the ability to control external synthesizers. Includes video.
1. Mute 2. Loop Hold (repeats a short loop of audio) 3. Loop momentary (repeats a loop once) 4. Switch the sequence between the screws and gaps between the screws 5. Crash - makes the Furby go crazy 6. Reset
