The Ototo Music Synthesizer turns any random object into a musical instrument.
The synthesizer is a circuit board-style device that can be played with one’s fingers. It can also be hooked up to any object via a series of clips made from conductive material that attaches the object to the circuit board. The musician then can play a variety of notes and sounds just by tapping or pressing the object or series of objects.
The Ototo music synthesizer can be used on anything from fruits and vegetables to pieces of foil and even a chair. This device lets musicians get creative with how they play music and what they play with, since they are no longer limited to conventional instruments.
