An original installation. Identified by Taylor Hendershott, based on personal knowledge of the organ.
The console is placed in the Hodges Chapel auditorium. The console is on the stage to the right behind the banister. The facade is present on both sides of the stage. The console is an electronic action console that is movable about the stage for purposes of performance. The console is cosmetically worn from use of university students since its installation.
