The Circular Piano - Neatorama

(Photo: PianoArc)

This is the PianoArc, an invention by Brockett Parsons. He's a keyboardist for Lady Gaga, so he wants an instrument as outlandish as his boss. With 294 keys, it's 3 conventional keyboards put together. The exterior diameter is about 6 feet. The height is adjustable and the PianoArc can be set at an angle.

Now hopefully people will take me seriously when I talk about my idea for a circular set of bagpipes.

While he may have invented it. The idea is not new.

Blast from the past, I guess...

He never actually sits on it.

It would be great until Carol drops salsa on it, or Jim spills his coffee. It's their fault we can never have nice things.

Hrm. My previous post is flagged. Ah well. Just wanted to point out that this is a dupe. Search the site for folding chair or flexible love. Been posted twice before.

JamesM, I've searched and haven't found duplicates anywhere.

But I would note that old items in the Upcoming Queue, once they roll off, usually aren't archived. Is that what you meant?

I agree, I'm pretty sure this has been posted before also. I still think someone should take this idea, make it affordable, and sell it in the US in Walmart or something and you could make big bucks though.

I've never seen this posted on the front page, but I'd also be interested in seeing people actually sitting on the seat portions. Looks like a neat party trick, though.

There is a part 1 on youtube that shows two women sitting on the chair. Seems to be fairly stable. But, then again, sitting lightly and treating it as a couch are to different things entirely.

add neatorama dot com to this

Maybe trying this variation of the url won't get flagged this time. *sigh*

Ah, there it is. You're right, JamesM.
