Calvin Harris Plays Giant Human Synthesiser
Calvin Harris has performed a version of his new single 'Ready For The Weekend' on a unique human synthesiser. The instrument employs 16 bikini clad models and a new electricity-conducting body ink developed by students at the Royal College of Art, London.
The new ink, when painted on the skin, allows a current to be passed through the body without causing an electric shock. When the performers touch, the connection completes a circuit, triggering a sound.
The project is the result of a collaboration between Calvin Harris, his label Columbia and four masters students from the RCA's Industrial Design Engineering programme.
