The MIDI-controlling sofa

You know how we love our alternative audio interfaces here at Engadget, so we present to you knob tweakers and beatmakers this MIDI-controlling sofa. There is no better way to extract value from your right and left buttocks than to use them as control values. How far you're leaning back determines the third and final control parameter offered by this DIY device, which we're sure is gonna get picked up and commercialized by M-Audio any second now.

So if a couple were to partake of some rumpy-pumpy on this sofa you'd end up with the music of love right? What with Matsushita's arse-warming rug, is the human posterior the new digital interface???

Okay, that gives the old line "Hey they're playing our song!" a whole new meaning!

Funny, I was thinking about love making making music too. Though I prefer to do my "pumpy" on the front side of my wife. ;-)

Pretty neat... but I think my radio-controlled, motorized couch is better :) check it out http://couchmobile.com
