In the photo the wire bundle appears to get thinner as it goes along each string of bells, so I am guessing there is a common plus 1 wire to each striker solenoid. If so perhaps the Port() Function can be used to record the sequence of strikes for each string. If there is no practical way to connect to the solenoids sewing pins could be pressed into the wires.

It may be possible to record the tone of each bell with a microphone, amp and FIN on a Picomite.

Or if you can capture the audio from that video you could use Audacity to find the tone and timing of each bell.
