The Beatbox: physically programmable drum machine

Yeah, we love to tweak our knobs and faders aight, so this project by Andy Huntington caught our eyes — it's a drum machine whose sounds are programmable by actual physical manipulation of several control objects. There's not too much in the way of description on this thing, but watch the video and you'll get the idea — it looks like factors such as height and proximity are used to control tempo and other parameters.
