A few years ago my brother-in-law bought a theremin kit. I put together a website/summary for him of an article I ran across I thought he'd enjoy:
http://www.idisplay.com/theremin/
The "site" is pretty informal, a tad irreverent perhaps, but being a major "Day the Earth Stood Still" fan, it was fun.
(my daughter used to be a big fan too; she called it "Robot." Now she says it's too scary!)

what do Hickcock's "Spellbound," Tim Burton's "Ed Wood," the Beach Boys'
"Good Vibrations," and "The Day the Earth Stood Still" have in common with
the KGB, North Carolina's Big Briar (run by Robert Moog) and
interracial marriage?

An odd instrument named after the Americanized version of its inventor's
name. Russian's Lev Sergeivich Termen became New York's Professor Leon
Theremin. at least one internetworker owns and plays a theremin.

Theremin: an Electronic Odyssey also being shown in the evening is
