What is a "stylophone"?

A stylophone is a small electronic musical instrument that produces sound when a metal stylus touches metal strips or pads on its surface. The strips are arranged in a keyboard layout, and each one is tuned to a different pitch. When the stylus makes contact with a strip, it completes an electronic circuit, generating a tone. The stylophone is known for its distinctive, electronic sound and is often used for its unique, retro appeal and simplicity in music production and performance.
