This is a fun little Friday post. Something lite.

Two students from the Swedish School of Textiles in Borås has developed a textile that works like a musical instruments. Sort of. Jeannine Han and Dan Riley integrated sensors that emit a harp-like sound when touched.

Eventually, the two want to start a band in which one or more of the musicians would wear the electronic outfit and play themselves.

Hmmmm. Short video below. Wish it was longer.
