Fuzz, Fuzz, Fuzz

Thanks a lot guys! I'm with Diynot: the Master Phaser has a wonderful sound. I built one for a friend last year and liked it so much that I built one for myself too.

The Elektrosluch is an easy to build and fun device, developed by Jonáš Gruska. A good manual can be found here: https://makezine.com/projects/weekend-project-sample-weird-sounds-electromagnetic-fields/

@Feral Feline: If you build one I would love to see the result!

The principle of electromagnetic listening was first popularized by Christina Kubisch in the concept of electrical walks. We did a special program on the topic for the Freiburg radio station "Radio Dreyeckland" featuring Kubisch's, Gruska's and other peoples work as well as our own field recordings. Unfortunately the comments are in German, but if there is interest I can share the broadcast privately. A track from the broadcast is available here: https://monadnode.bandcamp.com/track/strippe. Another track combining different electromagnetic sound sources can be found here: https://monadnode.bandcamp.com/track/mauerlunge

I'm into all the weird DIY stuff — sound to light, light to sound, electromagnetics to sound...

The first thing I came across in electromagnetic listening, similar to the Elektrosluch, was the Detektor: http://www.1010.co.uk/org/detektor.html

I found it quite intriguing, but the ever-growing pedal-build queue has kept me from building a Detektor.

Detektors is an open and collaborative project which consists in devices capable of recording hidden electromagnetic emissions produced by common electronic tools such as mobile phones, laptops, cameras etc. In addition, Detektors can also capture the high frequency bands: modulation of WiFi...

I've always thought it would be cool to rig up a small mixer pedal that introduces the electromagnetic-audio signal into my pedal chain parallel to the signal of my instrument.

Fun stuff.

@erwinsoundsystem @Diynot i have just build a master phaser and it sound very good, one question, i can't figure out how the switch is set to 5stages or 6stages. Personally I like the upper position of the switch, the down position cut off a lot of bass freq.
