A musical instrument called Marble Machine constructed by Swedish musical group Wintergatan is one of them. It truly can be considered a piece of art. It is basically a handmade music box which powers kick drum, bass and some other musical instruments using a hand crank and marble balls.
The machine has tracks, pulleys and funnels to reroute and collect those marble balls. Marble machines have a long story as an art entity by themselves, but this one is indeed a gorgeous creation.
The construction of this splendor took fourteen months.
Besides being somewhat old-fashioned musical instrument it can cooperate with modern computer software.
