Build your own theremin with Bristol Community Modular.
The BCM Theremin aims to be super simple to build, really immediate to play, totally portable and loads of fun to experiment with.
Using a couple of crocodile clips, you can turn almost anything metal into a controller for the instrument. With the built in speaker you can create weird sci-fi sounds anywhere.
The electronics are very beginner friendly to build, but should also be a great starting point for anyone that wants to understand how a theremin works, and how it lets your body become part of the circuit.
