The music that you hear is coming from the sparks that these two identical high power solid state Tesla coils are generating. There are no speakers involved. The Tesla coils stand 7 feet tall and are each capable of putting out over 12 foot of spark. They are spaced about 18 feet apart. The coils are controlled over a fiber optic link by a single laptop computer. Each coil is assigned to a midi channel which it responds to by playing notes that are programed into the computer software.
These coils were constructed by Steve Ward and Jeff Larson. Video was captured by Terry Blake.
What is not obvious is how loud the coils are. They are well over 110dB If you look at another You Tube video which is from a different angle, you can hear the echo off the building and get a better idea of how loud it is.
For info on how this works check out the following video.

n., pl. i·ris·es or i·ri·des (i’ri-dez’, ir’i-).
regulates the amount of light entering the eye.
Words in the video since you cant read them on here:
Letting go is hard.
Even in your darkest times, you will find light.
The past is dead, the future hasn’t arrived.
This moment is all you have.
HOPE is your soul awake.

Swept under the carpet … Red faces as another Banksy mural bites the dust
from the Daily Mail.Co.UK site
When renowned graffiti artist Banksy created one of his trademark pieces on the wall of the cutting-edge White Cube art gallery he might have expected it to be in safe hands.
But the gallery has been left embarrassed after the £200,000 work was destroyed.
The mural, called Sweep It Under The Carpet, showed a maid looking as if she was lifting up a part of the wall like a curtain to sweep away some dust.
Although White Cube employees insist they have no idea who painted over the mural, neighbouring businesses say they believe gallery staff were responsible.
Dave Ma, the manager of Shish restaurant, which is directly opposite the wall, saw someone he believes was a White Cube staff member painting over the work.
