Face Visualizer

Face Visualizer

Most digital media players have built-in visualizers that display graphics synchronized to music in real-time. A group of Japanese sound artists took this principal to a new level and exchanged the graphics with a human face.

The computer system is connected to the user’s face with electrodes that makes the face twist in sync with the music. The 10 electrical-pulse stimulators are connected to the face in various places so that the music can generate countless facial expressions.

Some of the side effects of using the Face Visualizer is pain, hallucinations and suffocation!

Check out the video of sound artist, Daito Manabe, demonstrating the Face Visualizer.

What can it be like for someone to make sure his arms stay indoors when it’s raining?

Jesse Sullivan became a real life “bionic man” after a terrible electrical accident.

Synaesthesia (also spelt synæsthesia, synesthesia); from the Greek (syn-) “union,” and (aesthesis) “sensation,” is the neurological mixing of the senses. A synaesthete may, for example, hear colors, see sounds, and taste tactile sensations. That means, the perception of one stimulus evokes a second perception. Synaesthesia is a common effect of some hallucinogenic drugs such as LSD or mescaline.
