Modding a mind-controlled music machine

Hats off to musician Robert Schneider, of The Apples in Stereo, for this mind-controlled music machine... Basically he controls the pitch of a synthesiser with his thoughts.

With exemplary Gadget Master know-how, he has modded a Mattel Mindflex toy (that uses EEG sensors) to be a controller interface for a Moog analogue synthesizer. Check out the video of the "Teletron" in action.


The less brain activity the lower the pitch, the more the brain activity, the higher the pitch. Weird with a capital W. But also Wonderful.

Thanks to Techeblog for highlighting this one. They label it as a Theremin but if it's Theremins you're after, check out our Theremin music to our ears.
