According to their website, "RESYNATOR is a documentary film-in-progress that shares the unique journey of a daughter (Alison Tavel) connecting with her late father through the resurrection of a synthesizer from the 1970s that he invented."

Check out the intriguing documentary teaser that features Tavel talking with artists like Peter Gabriel and Gotye about her father's work...
