Invent a completely new musical instrument

"What if you create sounds that have never existed before?"

Why now

Your musical taste is broad enough to know what's missing, but you're not yet stuck in conventional thinking patterns. You have the skills to tinker but also the musical knowledge to make it useful.

First 3 steps

  1. 1Experiment with different materials for sound production at home
  2. 2Record various sounds with your phone
  3. 3Watch how existing instruments work on YouTube
