Daito Manabe is an “Artist, Designer, Programmer, DJ, VJ, Composer” based in Tokyo, Japan. Evidently, he composed some electronic music but wasn’t content with his friends just listening or dancing to it.
Instead, he convinces four of his friends to be videotaped as they have electrodes attached to their faces which is then synced up to his music. Talk about some stimulating music! (A video is above; it becomes more interesting after the first minute.)
