University of Iowa Farm Machine Music
This incredible machine was built as a collaborative effort between the
Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory and the Sharon Wick School of
Engineering at the University of Iowa .
Amazingly, 97% of the machines’
components came from John Deere Industries and Irrigation Equipment of
Bancroft Iowa , yes farm equipment!
It took the team a combined 13,029 hours of set-up, calibration, and tuning before filming this video but as you can see it was
WELL worth the effort.
It is now on display in the Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall at the
University and is already slated to be donated to the Smithsonian.

THIS IS VIRTUAL. URBAN LEGENDS SAYS:
Comments: False. The video is amazing, no question, but the “fantastic machine” depicted therein wasn’t built out of farm equipment parts at the University of Iowa. It’s an example, rather, of the incredible 3D computer animation created by Wayne Lytle and his team at Animusic in Austin, Texas. No such machine exists in the real world.
