August 2001 - Jason Coffman
This month's picture is from Jason Coffman. He Writes:
"This is the Hello Kitty theremin Christine and I built for the anaphylaxis performance on 12/2/2000 (and all performances thereafter). It was built using a Chuck Collins theremin circuit board kit and a Sanrio Hello Kitty jewelry box. The small compartment on the side was drilled through to make a battery compartment (see below). I usually use Danelectro batteries, but the last one I had died, so this is the spare I keep in the compartment."
