Since 2014, the experimental Swedish band Wintergatan has assembled mindbogglingly intricate music boxes powered only by hand. The only digits involved are those attached to hands and arms and bodies. Nothing is computer enhanced or driven.

In this video band member Martin Molin unveils "Marble Machine X" which consists of gears, ratchets, tubes, pistons, levers and a conveyor that deploys marbles.
