Gear ideas the world isn't ready for?

Ironically, though popular in 80’s/90’s neo spiritualism, Kirlian photography dates back to 1939.

I’d like to suggest something like a tamagotchi that you keep on a keychain but instead of feeding and watering it, you have to train it to sing.

I think that’s a more pro-structive use of AI singing technology.

Oh you said evacuation. I thought you said…neverminded.

Based upon my observations here, I’d have to say:
The Perfect Sampler.
Which hasn’t been made yet!
Is the world ready?
Hell no it isn’t.

Yeah, definitely. Maybe I should email Ask a Mortician or the Order of the Good Death and see if there’s any human stories to share on the topic!

I know local performance artists but thankfully have not attended funerals for any yet!

Midi controllers that require you to wave your arms around and look like you’re attempting to transform into a flapping duck, always seem to struggle on the market. Anyone remember those midi rings that you wore, and by twisting your wrist you modulated a preassigned destination?

Well, you could just hack one of those Nintendo pads for track and field and hang it like a wind chime to play like a pinata or twister.

I would never destroy a timeless piece of artwork like that.

You and @shigginpit are locked in. Both responded with Nintendo product mentions.

We should take this bit on the road although I doubt we would make enough money to split a room at a motel 6 three ways.

All that matters is that we laugh…even if it’s on the way to the poor house.

Motel 6 will be the name of our new Midi product after we go on the road, fail miserably, go one unemployment, only to find a discarded scratcher ticket on the ground that’s actually a jackpot winner.

While people have hacked Power Gloves as MIDI controllers for a surprising number of years. one of my favorite stupid movies is where the actor who played James from Twin Peaks got a robot arm that plays rave music and beats up bullies.

True art.

It comes off like a very out of touch 70 y/o movie executive tried to appeal to acid house aficionados… and literal children.
