ブラウン管ガムラン│CRT-TV Gamelan Ensemble (from "ELECTRONICOS FANTASTICOS!")[Performance / Installation]

ブラウン管テレビから出る静電気を素手でキャッチし、足に接触させたコイルを通してギターアンプから音を鳴らす。画面に映る縞模様の本数によって電気の波長が変わり、音程が変化する。音量は画面に触れる手の面積でコントロール。
地デジ化以降、眠りゆく運命となったブラウン管は電鳴打楽器へと転生する!
A player catches static electricity emitted from CRT-TVs with bare hands and makes sounds by sending the electric signals through a coil attached to a leg to a guitar amplifier.
The musical pitch changes depending on the number of stripes on the screen, and the volume is controlled by the area touched by the hands.
CRT-TVs destined to rest eternally after ending analog broadcasting are reincarnated to electromagnetic percussion instruments now!
