I love this weird idea that somehow uses weird paint that conducts electricity to trigger sounds assigned to other people in the room. I think the girls in bikinis were ideal choice for his instruments. It’s basically sample triggering & circuit bending done with people (ableton/arduino). Take that Thomas Dolby you just been blinded with science.
Calvin performs a version of his new single Ready For The Weekend on a unique human synthesiser. The instrument employs 15 bikini clad models painted with Bare Conductive, a new skin safe ink which conducts electricity. When the performers touch the connection completes a circuit, triggering a sound.”
