Nike Music Shoe [Inspiration, MaxMSP, Objects]

Nike Music Shoe is the latest project by Daito Manabe, Tomoaki Yanagisawa W+K Tokyo and others (4nchor5, rhizomatiks) turning Nike’s free run+ shoe into a music instrument. Created using MaxMSP with *Ableton Live (Thanks Daito!). Enjoy.

Love this part (end of the video):
The NIKE FREE RUN+ is absolutely a running shoe.
Shoes sold at retail will NOT make music when bent or twisted. – Why not!! =]

//*UPDATE 29.04.2010: Added making of video below. Enjoy

    Something is missing to this piece. The connection of shoe to sound is weak and simply not compelling.

    i was expecting them to take tapdancing to a whole new level… create the music with just their feet using some nifty choreography…

    Not necessarily Expensive

    ‘A pair of new shoes might not cure a broken heart or soothe a tension headache but they will relieve the symptoms and chase away the blues’ –these words were written by the famous Fashion critic, Holly Brubach. Well this statement reflects that shoes are of immense importance and they are an integral part of fashion. The origin of women shoes dates back to before Christ.
