Description
Emotions on line is a wearable instrument that generates sound by pulling strings out of a retractable custom mechanism attached to the performer's body. The inspiration is coming from my experience of learning a instrument that I don't like when I was a child. I played the zither(Chinese traditional instrument)for 10 years, I hate the everyday practice but my parents push me to learn it. Every time when I was playing the zither the teacher was not satisfied with my performance, and always want me to image I was the instrument, the instrument was combine with my body. I was very confuse at that moment, so I build a instrument that the strings could coming out from my body, and I find it is easier to put my emotions on the string.
