MIDI Bear

2002

Type

Toy

Keywords

diy, midi, led, toy, hacking

A direct product of seeing the Teddy Borg and a simple LED MIDI tester. The MIDI Bear has a MIDI socket in the back that is wired to LEDs in the eyes. I wrote a programme to convert sound volume to junk MIDI data density so that the eyes now pulse with the music when I perform.
