Caption Contest: A heaping helping of wearable music

Is this the new musical Power Glove ? Imogen Heap thinks so. The Grammy winner rocked the stylish hand warmers at a TEDGlobal 2011 event in Edinburgh, Scotland, creating gesture-based music during a four-minute demonstration, with the gloves wirelessly connected to a nearby laptop. Could this be the death of the theremin as we know it, or just another good excuse to do a caption contest? Brian: “Imogen there’s no heaven.” Terrence : “Ms. Heap hard at work on a sequel to the NES “classic” Bad Street Brawler , tentatively titled Street Corner Complainer .” Darren : “Seriously? Wires?” Brad: “Now if only I could find some oven mitts that would magically bake cookies for me, I’d be set!” Jon: “Force enhancing gloves allow Imogen to one up Luke, raise X-Wing.” Tim : “Do I look intense enough now? Too pensive? What if I tilt my head up a bit further?” Amar: “And then they handed me the Grammy and I grabbed it like this and then — oh, have I already told you this story?” Dante: “What do you mean they aren’t cashmere?!?!” Joseph: “So I was holding Bjork’s leg up like this, but she still couldn’t get over Madonna’s gate.” Sean: “To sleep, perchance to dream – ay, there’s the rub…” Christopher: “Please sir, I beg you — don’t take my Flowbee away.” Richard Lai: “Ceiling cat, come to momma.” [Image credit: University of the West of England] Caption Contest: A heaping helping of wearable music originally appeared on Engadget on Thu, 14 Jul 2011 16:54:00 EDT.
