Musical Stairs

October 19th, 2009 Jules Leave a comment Go to comments

Car firm Volkswagen recently teamed up with some designers to transform a set of steps at a subway in Stockholm into, well, a giant musical keyboard not too dissimilar from those played by Tom Hanks in flick Big.

The subway keys don’t appear to light-up, but each plays an individual note every time someone steps on them.

    I know the inventor of musical stairs and the original walking piano. His name is Remo Saraceni and he is an absolute genius.
    He designed these magical items more than twenty years ago and Tom Hanks was the first to dance on walking piano in the movie Big.
    If you want to see with your eyes all the possible applications of the walking piano played with the feet take a look at Remo Saraceni’s channel on youtube.
