Iner Souster
Iner Souster (born 1971) is a builder of experimental musical instruments, visual artist, musician, fauxbot designer and film maker. He resides in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Instruments
Souster builds most of his instruments from trash, found, and salvaged materials.
Some of his instruments are one string string instruments or thumb pianos. One of his more complicated instruments is the "Bowafridgeaphone" (bow a fridge a phone). Souster has used refrigerator grates in quite a few of his instruments.
Other items include a broken old speaker, a bundt cake pan, metal salad bowl, and the few other pieces of metal. There's also 36 strings along the body to help with its resonance, and pick up a few sympathetic tones along the way.
Several of Souster's "junkstruments" were utilized by Canadian indie rock band FemBots on their 2008 album Calling Out, on which Souster was also credited as a guest musician.
