If you live in a big city, chances are you've seen an artist street with a harmonica in his mouth and a drum at his feet. And while seems like a pretty epic multitasking, there is nothing compared to what this guy can do.
The instrument he plays is an American FotoPlayer. Mainly used between the years 1912 and 1925, it was specifically designed to create sound effects and live scores for silent films.
The use of a series of pedals, organs, whistles, drums and bells, this guy absolutely shreds to make Wackadoo hunting music you might hear in a Looney Tunes short.
Unfortunately for FotoPlayer business, sound films made almost obsolete. It is a rare pleasure to see a fact played because there are currently less than 50 survivors - only 12 are actually playable
