An amazing video titled “Xylophone” by NTT Docomo, the Japanese cellular phone provider. Director Morihiro Harano and his staff at Party Inc. fashioned a giant wooden xylophone, sloping down a hill in the middle of a forest. When a marble cascaded down, it played Bach’s Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring as it went. The video was to advertise the company’s new Touch Wood SH-08C phone, which, like the xylophone, was made of sustainably harvested wood.
