“Humanthesizer” Turns Bodies Into Electric Instruments

August 13 2009

‘As Creative Review reports:

To promote Calvin Harris‘s new single, Sony Music creatives Phil Clandillon and Steve Milbourne (who you may remember were responsible for the AC/DC ASCII Excel video last year) decided to use Bare Conductive, a technology developed by RCA Industrial Design and Engineering masters students Bibi Nelson, Becky Pilditch, Isabel Lizardi and Matt Johnson. Bare Conductive is “skin-safe, conductive ink”. When painted on the skin, it allows a current to be passed through the body without causing an electric shock.’

Not sure if this is gimmick, Wizard of Oz or really working. But its worth a peep!

For the ones who attended SiDER’09 this year in Eindhoven, it’s from the same group who presented the Bare project (from RCA). Here is their website: http://bareconductive.com
