As I Asked,

in a previous post,


 'What is it?',

 the answer is that the Wintergatan band of folktronica musicians/inventors are showing us the latest developments in their ongoing Marble Machine project, 

 the Marble Conveyor Belt, which uses ratchets and pistons to move dozens of marbles around and through the Marble Machine,


there are full notes on the band’s YouTube channel explaining how it all works, Wintergatan’s loyal following on YouTube and Patreon, which follows these intricacies at every turn, has helped support the complex and long-running invention process, once the full Marble Machine X is complete, Wintergatan will embark on a world tour performing music with the finished musical machine, 



the video above is absolutely amazingYou can find free scores as well as records and merchandise in the Wintergatan online store, and you can stay up to date with the Marble Machine’s progress on Instagram, what an amazing machine, or should we call it a musical instrument?
