扇風琴│Electric Fan Harp (from “EF!”)

扇風琴│Electric Fan Harp (from “ELECTRONICOS FANTASTICOS!“)［Performance］

もしエレキギターの神様、Jimi Hendrixが扇風機を演奏するとしたら？という妄想を出発点に生まれた楽器。
扇風機に光源と穴の空いた円盤を取りつけ、回転によって明滅する光を「光ピック」で電気信号として拾うことでギターアンプから音を鳴らす。円盤に空ける穴の数やモーターの回転数の違いによって音程が変化する。
ギターストラップを取りつけて扇風機を担ぎ、調光器で電圧を変えてチョーキング。弱・中・強のスイッチは転調のスイッチへ。首を振るのは、もはや演奏者！
This instrument was based on the wild idea "What if Jimi Hendrix, the god of electric guitars, played electric fans as instruments?"
A player catches the light passing through an electric fan as electric signals with a Light-Pick and makes sounds from a guitar / bass amplifier.
A light bulb and a guitar strap are attached to the fan, and the fan blade is replaced with a special-made disc with holes. The musical pitch changes depending on the number of the holes on the disc and the speed of the fan.
The player holds the electric fan upside-down and swings the neck.
