An electronically enhanced sewing machine [soundsbutter.com], able to represent sound through the height of the stitches it creates. The resulting stitch pattern thus becomes visually similar to an equalizer timeline. Unfortunately, currently a non-working prototype only.

Okay, I'm a seamstress that digitizes embroidery designs for computerized machines, and have also done DJ work. With those things as a huge part of my life, I still see no practical use or purpose for this machine. Sure, I think it's neat, but it is also a stupid waste of time, energy, and money. Why not put all three to better use and go volunteer to feed the homeless or something?
