Deja Vu!

This actually presents an interesting idea. What about a pedal with a small speaker and condenser microphone inside it to produce a sort of low-fi, AM radio effect? "Wish you were here" in a box?

There was one that was submitted last year for the DIYSB 10th anniversary competition.  Definitely worth checking out.

The fish is poisoned.  This is referred to as Schrodinger's stompbox.

The fish provides a distraction to the cat playing guitar and thus the cat is periodically thinking about the fish and neglecting his playing duty. This creates a vibrato effect. To obtain different waveform patterns different fish are used.
