Wow that must be the worst controller I've ever seen in terms of ergonomics. You could do the exact same thing exerting way less physical energy, unless the whole point is to get a good workout

i think the point is to look cool.. getting a workout is probably just a happy accident :p i sure do love how it sounds tho.

yep. I couldn't find a good video, but you can easily get sounds like that from a Kaossilator Pro.

I think it's just a Midi controller, the sound is being generated by something else.

Its more ergonomic. Its just not something a manufacturer could sell. There is no compromise. Its a full size instrument that connects himself directly to the music.

Soooooo fashionable. Throbbing Gristle must be most impressed.

It isn't ergonomic. "Ergonomic" means that it is designed to be as efficient as possible and require the least amount of physical effort and fatigue to operate. This thing is definitely not ergonomic, it looks like a weird gym machine.
I'm sure he enjoys playing it and connecting with his music through it though, which is what I assume you meant.

Is this what they call "industrial"? HEHE get it

Looks a bit prosumer.

Might as well just mic up your car.

... but it's ART, man... like a total statement about... society and the modern... something.... man...

Yeah I'd say it's a gimmick to try and grab some attention.

I do kinda like the look of it, it looks nicely machined/engineered but he could've done more - in the video there's just the 3 parts, not much as an 'instument' though.

I've seen him perform, it's quite a show:

I guess it keeps him off the streets...
