Circuit Bending.. with your EYES!

Jackson, our production manager at work is really into circuit bending and I found this little tidbit on youtube.. seems a though someone took apart a the tweaked guts of a Pikachu doll.

As you can see from the video, the instrument itself is controlled by an external box that lets you adjust the speed and pitch of the sample. The flashing light is, I guess, just for style. Awesome?



This has a little bit more value than the other types of circuit bending where instead of having some weird blip or sweeping murmur it has some tone and could possibly used in an actual song musically? Who knows.. evolution is a slow process. LOL
