Encore: The Axe Grinder can belt out a rock star performance

Asmita PrasadSep 25 2008

Not that rock stars needed any more encouragement to make their performances more “interesting” but just in case you happen to live in a town, with a serious dearth of hardcore rock bands, this nifty little creation called the Axe Grinder might be something you’ll be interested in coaxing your town’s mayor to acquire for the benefit of the locals. Crafted out of recycled urban junk by Cyclecide’s “alter-bike mechanics”, the amazing interactive kinetic art installation provides an instant visual impact as well as a handy beat. To make the music monster play, all you gotta do is to pedal. As the blades of the windmill revolve, a generally melodious tune is churned out, thanks to synchronized chord playing on the four guitars. Dig the groovy sculpture ding its thing in the vid below!
