Somehow, this triggered a memory of a stunt that I pulled several decades ago. It was shortly after digital audio became a thing and I picked up a ROM chip that had and audio recording of the famous restaurant scene from "When Harry Met Sally".
I made up a circuit to play the recording in an endless loop and mounted it in a small box with a small speaker, a nine volt battery, and a hidden off switch. The box was covered with aluminum foil and painted with fluorescent blaze orange. The foil was connected to the circuit which was sensitive to very small electrical charges so when anyone touched the box, it would play the recording.
It made for an amusing coffee table curio. I wonder whatever happened to theat box?
