The artist Phillip Stearns delivered a lecture on experimental electronics, circuit bending, and using sound to create imagery and vice versa.  Through feedback loops running from mixer to compact fluorescent bulbs and back to the mixer, and with no other sound generating instrument, Stearns is able to create musical composition as in the video above.
