Tongue Music(+The Sound of Kiss)

video Tongue Music(+The Sound of Kiss)

One user: play music to control a tongue!
Two users: The Sound of Kiss facilitates an amorous ambience in which couples digitize their love while kissing. One wears a headset and the other's tongue is affixed to a magnet. When they kiss, the magnet and the electro-magnetic sensor interact to create spontaneous music. The musical composition depends on how far one's tongue is away from the other's lips/tongue and their style of action.

It seems as if it's just a magnet and a sensor that plays random notes when the magnet is near the sensor. You are not really creating music. Interesting...but it would have been more interesting if it acted like theremin instead of playing pre-coded random notes. On a side note....the 'preperation' looks like he is about to get electric shock therapy with the coating of the magnet and the rubber gloves....

Thanks for good comment. I know what problem is.. Me and my friend Ramaldo made early Tongue Music v.1 to play piano (http://www.vimeo.com/2844099) but it wasn't enough in some ways. I can play do-re-mi-fa..like some musical notes. but it would be engineering project.

Currently this project is for festival as experimental interface to make people hear their love. Later if I have more funding for group of people, I would like to make a performance like each couple as an instrument.

p.s theremin looks interesting. the sound is beautiful. I am just learning technology music recently. I wish I know more... thanks!!!

Probably not recommended for a first date. Any chance of more detail on the rest of the hardware?
