Vivian Darkbloom’s Wii Guitar
October 30, 2009Finally, rock star guitar posturing is being put to good use! Rob Morris, frontman of Cambridge, MA’s Vivian Darkbloom, uses a Wii remote to control his guitar effects. The position and acceleration sensors in the controller, fixed to the body of his guitar, lets him access a range of effects by how he holds his instrument (check out the video above to see it in action, or this one for more background).
You can check out the Wii Guitar in person tonight (Friday, October 30th) in Cambridge—Vivian Darkbloom has a gig at TT the Bear’s. Doors at 8 pm.
And I can’t help but think that Rob Morris should get together with John Mileham of The Franklin Kite.

That. Is AWESOME.
