I've messed with trackers briefly with modplug, but it takes quite a bit of experience with the thing to know what's going on! I just liked to play a midi version of Beethoven's ninth I nabbed off the net, and watch all those little numbers go by 
I didn't have one of those 100-in-one kits growing up, but I did have a Radioshack Sensorlab which was based off the same sort of concept. Spring terminals, knobs, and these various different sensors (One I remember being a photocell, another an infrared sensor) that you could plug into a port on the top. There was also a breadboard section in the middle for..well..breadboarding.
Now that I think of it, those kit boards really do strike me as a physical, retro 70's version of flowstone, with all the different components and knobs you could hook up and play with
I think mine had some bar graph LEDS too!
Spogg, I love the cabling on some of your old setups. Those dual reel-to-reels really tell a tale of a time when those decks were the only way to save and edit one's music. Really wish I could've gone back in time to bag myself some of those curtis chips!
This was my first swing at a TOS/Divider generator. Wanting to set quirky rules for the project, I went off the deep end and won an ebay auction for a 12-note tonewheel gen. off a Hammond x-66. The "Dividers" are 74hct393 ripple counters. The keyboard was evidently from an old electric carillon, but had served a previous life as a remote tuner for a theater organ.

The divider board is all wire-wrap construction (whew, not doing that again!), with machine pin sockets for pretty much every component. Somehow it all works! Beats me

As far as Tula's demos go, I love the character of the cronchy samples juxtaposed against the tape hiss I'd say the second sounds almost like something straight out of Unreal Tournament '99
Hope others chime in with demos as well, I'll follow suit if I end up finding/recording anything up to snuff
