It looks like something played by the alien musicians in the bar in Star Wars.

It can be made to sound like it too.

The Eigenharp is the brainchild of John Lambert, a musician and software entrepreneur, whose Devon-based team has been working on the project for eight years. </em>

Dunno what it is, but I have a place for one in the guitar room!
