LEMUR Slime-o-Tron: A Slimey Controller


YouTube via gearwire
"LEMUR's Eric Singer has more than just a penchant for making his musical bots. In fact, he has a separate category altogether for very innovative musical controllers he creates and calls "Trons." Here, we take our first look at the Slime-o-Tron - a controller that works by moving conductive slime around copper nails. Check the video out to see the most unorthodox controller you can imagine, and see more on gearwire.com."

I think this could be more interesting if it were playing some sort of squishy synth rather then turning on and off a reverse loop with some processing.

I seen something like that once and it ate, or rather more like absorbed, people.

I'm not sure which is weirder... the fact that someone manufactures a product that can be described as "conductive slime", or the fact that someone else actually has a use for it.
