Video: The Star Wars floppy disk

What do you do with an old floppy drive and a disk? Why you make it into a musical instrument, forcing the motor or the drive to play the Imperial March from Star Wars.

I’m not sure how this was done, but I love it very much.

Now that was fraking cool. TO REALLY get some cred make it self contained so it READS the floppy to get the song it is to play :-)

I want to know how to do this :-)
