I found the YouTube video below (recently demonstrated at TEDxGöteborg) and thought it was interesting enough to share.

Swedish scientists have created a musical instrument that uses a photon detector as a pulse generator (high energy particles yield a high note; low energy particles yield a low note). Some interesting science and theory is explained at the beginning (not too technical, easy for non-scientists to follow), but if you just want to hear the sound/music that is produced, fast forward to about the eleven minute mark of the video. Enjoy…
