A theremin consists of a box, a hoop, an upright antenna looking thingy and a lot of electronic circuitry. You can't mistake it for anything else, whether you see it or hear it.

Hey cool! There's a theramin orchestra in Austin, TX!! (I know the lady on the left. She is very, very cool).

The name of the thing is "dumb bull." This is what I found on Google. " Bob Short had a dumb-bull,a keg with a strip of raw-hide stretched across one end like
a drum-head, while the other remained open. A waxed cord
inserted in the middle of the drum-head, and reaching down
through the keg, completed the instrument. The pulling of
the hand over this cord made a hideous bellowing, hence
its name.
