Behold the cacophonous Furby Organ

THE FURBY ORGAN, A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT MADE FROM FURBIES

Looking remarkably like the Mogwai creatures from the 1984 film Gremlins, Furbies first hit the market in November 1998, becoming an instant success. In just the first three years of production, over 40M of these fake fur-covered robotic toys were sold. Since their early days, the Furby has been re-introduced a few times.

That means there are a lot of Furbies collecting dust on this planet.

Well, musician and inventor Sam Battle of Look Mum No Computer salvaged over 44 of them and attached them to an organ. Watch the video to hear a cacophony of “Furbish” music (?).

I won’t lie, as noisy as it is, I totally want a Furby Organ for myself.
