Valentine’s Day Love Song Machine

tellart_bell_ensemble

Just in time for Valentine’s day, [Adam Meyer] and the folks over at tellart.com have put together a little project they call the “Love Song Machine“. Using a web-based form, anyone can submit a song, which will then be played on a system of bells that they have set up in their office. You can choose from several pre-defined love songs, or you can create your own unique arrangement with which to serenade them. Once you are ready to go, your song will be queued up, and you can watch a video of your creation as it is being played.

The system is comprised of 8 solenoid-actuated bells which are all controlled by the Arduino they have hooked up to their web server. It’s a pretty fun idea, and there are sure to be plenty of people submitting songs, so get yours in before things get too busy!

Keep reading to see a video preview of their system in action.

  1. hmm after doing it, i would suggest they just have a live feed so you can watch everyone’s song rather than just looking at a clock to countdown to your song

    this kind of reminds me of silophone
    still kinda cool though

  2. They’re actually standing there watching (at least when mine played). It’s a lot of fun!

    I’m with zool though, it’d be fun if we could watch the feed and see everyone’s creations.
