Xylophone of the Forest

Japanese mobile operator DOCOMO made a commercial for the Touch Wood SH-08C (a limited edition phone). By combining lord knows how many pieces of wood, they made a long, downhill track that was able to reproduce Bach’s Cantata 147, Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring. This was a Herculean task; my mouth was hanging open in disbelief for most of it. Huge props to Invisible Designs Lab’s Kenjiro Matsuo for making this crazy idea a reality. The again, I'm not surprised the Japanese would come up with something this creative and meticulous.

English translation: Title: Xylophone of the Forest
