From the project

Glockwork Orange is a fully self-playing chromatic Glockenspiel that relies on solenoids to play ANY midi file payload by adjusting the instrumentation to fit into two voices! :3

A "Clockwork Orange" is defined as a human being who has had their free will and moral agency mechanically stripped away, turning them into a predictable, unthinking mechanism controlled by outside forces like the state. The human's natural "juicy" state is manifest in the orange, whereas the clockwork represents the unnaturality and cold predictability of the system.
