Not exactly a theremin, but a very interesting instrument declaredly inspired by it. It's essentially a digital synthesizer with a theremin-like control, with some interesting twists.
What do you think?

Thanks! It has a more intuitive playing interface than a Theremin, and you can do similar things with it. I believe one could probably also do this with hand capacitance and so dispense with the magnet holding. There was an instrument that did this with LEDs pointing up and reflecting off the hand, but I can't find a link to it anymore, and it probably wasn't as responsive.
The voices seem more old school analog synthy: waveform and distortion driven rather than filter driven, which isn't my cup of tea. They could maybe do more with the right hand z axis to give an abrupt turn-on, so the left hand wouldn't be required to ape it?
Don't mean to dump on it, I'm all in favor of more controllers!
