Light Theremin

Step 6 Using The L.T.

As you can see the sound the circuit makes will change when you wave your hand over the photo resistors or change the lighting in the room. Try different motions to produce different sounds, I observed that if you shake one hand really fast over one or two of the photo resistors the L.T. will give to a erie shaky sound. Or if you more your hand like a wave over one or all four photo resistors you'll get a wavy sound (no kidding!). Most of the sounds it produces sound like they are from a cheesy horror flick from the 60's or 70's! The total amount of sounds you can produce is only limited by your hands and lighting! Now sit down (well standing might be better) and enjoy!

 I'm assuming light allows for current to pass through the photoresistors?

I wonder if there is a way to make the sound more pleasing...?

I don't know about that, I prefer the electronic whine of the device so I never really went much further to improve it; but if you can figure something out send me a message!
