Went to the Utrecht Clock museum. Its more of automated music museum than clock I think. It comes first from clock towers that tell the time but before striking for the hour, you need to warn people that the strike is coming so you had a little tune before the 'dong!'. Thats how it all came about.
From that, there was lots of automated music machines that came out. from simple bells to a whole orchestra. The first video is a small street entertainer's box with moving people to entertain the watchers, while the second vid is a huge magnification of the simple music machine. The thrid video is an automated piano plus 4 violins. It was just simply quite mesmerizing to stand and watch it play by itself.
