Okay, we've found out about the Radio Shack Ring Of Death. The creator is one [Toby Paddock,](http://www.seanet.com/~tpaddock/) who, aside from being obviously deranged, took the time to pen this missive:  
_  
Each reverb have an added delayed-only signal output that feeds into  
the next in the circle. I haven't spent much time with it yet so I don't  
really know what it wants to do. Cheesy old sci-fi movie noises and  
obnoxious feedback are easy to get from it.

The lucite box is a neon oscillator 4x4x4 grid "art thing". Not really  
synth-diy related, but it does have oscillators modulated by other  
oscillators. Sort of. I would like to try to get some signals out of it. It  
is powered from +/-160V (20uA) with a floating ground and I'm guessing the  
ground floats around a bit as the lamps fire.

So, there you have it.
