Cyborg Music: Watch a DJ ‘Play’ Facial Expressions via Electrical Impulses

Taking the role of programmer, designer, DJ, VJ, and composer on each of his projects, Daito Manabe is able to realize scenarios that change our perception of how our bodies interact with technology.

DJs have long dreamed of having a third arm to mix and scratch with, and Manabe has already traversed this possibility.
