Naudin has posted two more videos where he holds the magnet away from the
torodial coils so that the pickup coil is between the magnet and the toroidal
coil:

and with a nanocrystalline alloy for the core:

This time the current drops when the magnet is brought closer.
I am still puzzled how the magnetic field inside manages to vary the permanent
magnet's field magnetic outside the core. The logic of combining
a contained field to a pervasive field doesn't make sense to me.
I presume the core is emitting EM radiation. Does that play a role?
