For another insightful example of flat ontologies in popular culture, may I refer you to the works of [1] [2] of Takahashi et al. exploring the implications of dividing the material world into just two categories:
1. small enough to be rolled into katamari,
2. will soon be small enough to be rolled into katamari.

So I've been building a 100% analog polyphonic synthesizer with an unique twist. To use only vacuum tube era technology from the 1930s.

Over 300 neon gas diodes create the sound you hear. Pretty awesome for technology from 100 years ago.

Still a work-in-progress, but I wanted to post a video of it with the innards spread out across the workbench. : }

I call it the "Neon String Machine"
