Control MIDI with your body. HUH ?

I dunno how to describe this to you. It’s a body MIDI motion controller. Sounds cool huh?
Copied from Sonologs website:
The GypsyMIDI is a unique performance instrument for motion-capture midi control, featuring extensive customization to enable a wide range of musical and visual applications. Setup and operation is simple, intuitive and quick.
The suit is modeled on the human skeletal form using rotational sensors placed on the joints. The GypsyMIDI simply plugs into a MIDI interface and arm movements are converted into a real-time stream of MIDI data. The mapping interface eXo-software allows the user to define how the movements are translated into MIDI control, including the ability to trigger notes, generate continuous control commands or even play scales.
Software included with the suit lets the user control any MIDI-enabled program including Cubase, Live, Logic Audio, ProTools, MotionBuilder, Reason, Traktor DJ Studio and any VST instrument or effect. Real-time control of sliders, cross-faders, and buttons allows many parameters such as volume, filter cut-off & resonance to be manipulated instantly.
Check out the video in the upper right corner of thier site. Interesting possibilties for sure.
I bet you could use the thing to control Abelton LIVE…though you might look like an epileptic.
