"the inside of the case still smells like an old man" - when I read
that on his website, I laughed my insides out.

Come to think of it, downstairs in the basement of the radio station
are a handful of old audio consoles left over from the post art
deco/bakelite era I'd love to see converted into some kind of homemade
synth/noizemaker. I'd make one with lots of stove/oven styled pointer
knobs and those kinds of meters that look like the cover of King
Crimson's "Red" album...y'know a Jules Verne meets Thomas Dolby kind
of creation.

(I also love his Puerto Rican color scheme.)
