You've probably seen something like this before, but never this well. ArcAttack uses two eight foot Tesla coils and a robotic percussion band in order to play music.
In addition to the interview with one of the ArcAttack members, John DiPrima, that we've conducted for our series on crazy inventors and inventions, we've also made sure that you'll be able to enjoy renditions of Popcorn and the Doctor Who theme via audio-modulated freakin thunder.
For those who want to skip the interview, Popcorn starts at 3:50 and Doctor Who starts at 6:45
You'll have to excuse the fact that we set up the camera about 100 feet from the actual Tesla coils. Any closer to that and we were getting serious interference which was throwing off our cameras focus - and doing god knows what else to them. You can see some of the effects from seeing the coils light up fluorescent lights from 15 feet away.
