Epic Vid of the Week is a new weekly series that showcases an awesome video that we or our readers discover. Some you may have seen before and others you may have not. If you’ve discovered any videos that are worthy of an Epic Vid of the Week title, let us know!
Peruvian musician Jaime Oliver (not the English chef) has recently created what essentially is a drum looking thing that makes awesome, industrial noises. However, instead of beating it with your hand or a drumstick, you shape the flexible surface with your hands to make noises. A camera pointed up towards the bottom of the flexible surface measures all of the deflections made and then translates that into industrial music of sorts. Where the heck is Trent Reznor when you need him?
