Reminds me of the work of Love Hultén: https://www.lovehulten.com
He builds beautiful, colorful, retro-futuristic audio-visual art pieces Many are synths.

Feels very much in the realm of Love Hultén’s design language.
All it’s missing is a half sphere dome lens in front of the panel.

Gorgeous gear and photography to match.
I laughed and winced at this delicious travesty: https://www.lovehulten.com/apple1.html (If you lived the Warring Eight Bit Period, you'll understand.)

It took me awhile to realize what was wrong. However, they did have one further up that showed the joystick unscrewed. I'm hoping the same happens for that one.
