Sonic fabric dress -- wearable music instrument


BoingBoing reader Michael Corrado points us to a website featuring...
Fabric made from woven audiotape, readable by gloves containing tape heads. Dress made for Jim Jon Fishman of Phish, which composed song about dress's debut. Fishman used dress to create music next night. Vegas, May 2004

Update: BoingBoing reader Gary writes, "If you want to hear the results yourself (nothing too impressive ... yet), you can go here and download the concert (during the performance of "Love You"). You might also be pleasantly suprised that Phish is happy to transmit full soundboard quality with no DRM."
