ETHER is a wide-band pocket receiver that turns the electromagnetic landscape around you into a live soundscape that you control and manipulate by walking around and moving ETHER with your hand. More info and how to buy: https://somasynths.com/ether/

they're based in russia but they set up a 'european division' to make things easier.

Ooh, I'd just assumed this was another Elektrosluch type thing, so not really read the blurb as I have some induction coils already. But it sounds a bit more interesting than that...

This is the exact same thing as the Elektrosluch right?

FFS, I literally just said it wasnt in the post before yours.

Wow those sounds!

Pity it looks hard to record from without affecting the sound (interesting that it has a sort of quantum observer effect)

Interesting indeed.

Sorry, I initially misread your post. I've now read the blurb as well… for others:

if your goal is to scan objects in close proximity (0-20 centimeters), devices like Elektrosluch will work cleaner and more focused due to its narrow band and lower sensitivity. ETHER was designed to be a part of your walks in the city and may even pick up sounds in a forest or at the seashore (I have such experience). Elektrosluch was designed for using over a table full of gear.

sorry, that probably came off as ruder than intended without a smiley.

it's certainly like it, it's just not the (exact) same.
for my money, its output is not different enough to warrant the 150-180 euro (!!!!!!!!!!!!!) cost (as an existing Elektrosluch owner) - not to mention I prefer the focus of the Elektrosluch.
