What is our idea?

Our goal is to create a unique and enjoyable musical instrument. We hope to engineer an intricate and immersive performance experience that allows users to create a host of unusual sounds, even simultaneously.

Our System

The Rhythm

The mechanical, electrical, and software components behind the Rhythm.

The Beat

The camshafts and drum sticks that create the beat.

The Melody

The code behind the chords.

Meet Nev & the Nevers!

Learn about us and our learning goals!

Nathan Estill

Nathan Estill is a sophomore at Olin who likes Robotics and the intersection of mechanical, electrical and computer engineering. He wants to gain knowledge of circuitry and electrical engineering while also helping with all aspects of the project.

Flynn Michael-Legg

Flynn Michael Legg is a sophomore at Olin College who hopes to gain more experience with designing and building mechanical integration components. He also wants to learn more about coding in C and especially with regards to arduino. Most importantly, he wants to contribute to all aspects of the project.

Nev Gedikoglu

Nev Gedikoglu is a sophomore at Babson College who aims to learn more about mechanical and software engineering. He wants to improve his Arduino knowledge but is also interested in learning more about some basic aspects of the mechanical part of the project.

Viktor Deturck

Viktor Deturck is a senior engineering student from Belgium who is studying at Olin for this semester. As he already has some theoretical background, his main goal for this semester is to use and implement this knowledge in real life. He wants to learn more about different systems (software, electric, mechanical) working together.

David Freeman

David Freeman is a sophomore at Olin who is interested in digging into engineering with a critical, engaged attitude. He hopes that this project allows for him to explore musical synthesis in multiple regards, from the user’s experience to the electronic or physical generation of sound.
