Swoompipes

These beautiful, hand-held, wooden panpipe-type things present the characteristics of multiple instruments of world music. It is believed that somewhere along the line, an accompanying bag would have originally been present – but over time got cast aside, like some kind of SCOTTCH APPENDiX. Designed by Swoomptheeng to be the ultimate DJ tool, these pipes emit bearded drone music and control games or music software using SuperVGA’s BLUETEETH connection.

They have motion sensors, touchpads, twisty-locky bits and a blow hole 8!
