An electrical engineering student has developed a 16-part orchestra machine out of floppy disc drives.

"It was something that I picked up previously when I was looking at projects for this year," said James Willis.

"The drives themselves have within them a motor that moves the head, or back in the day the floppy disc, to read the bits of data.

"By moving that at the frequency of a note, just like the way that a piano hits a string and that vibrates, that generates that tone that I need on that particular disc."
