Ned Troide became famous for scoring 72,999,975 points on the video game Defender. It was the highest score ever recorded for the game in a single session lasting 62 1/2 hours. What is less known is that he also makes really interesting furniture. This “AC/DC” shifter device plays six songs of the band AC/DC simultaneously and allows for the tracks to be mixed in real time by using six tractor gear shifts.

This isn’t made by Ned Troide, but inspired by him. Its made by Paul Davies. Wired has a article that explains.
There’s also a very similar “Jazz Shifter” up on Mr. Davies site, so me thinks there’s some nom de plume borrowing going on … guess “Billy Mitchell” was a bit obvious.
Nevertheless, these look intriguing – too bad there’s no video/audio clips of them in action.
Sorry, a bit of makezine caching going on – Dan’s comment didn’t appear until after I posted.
the first time i showed this piece i called it the ‘jazz shifter’ – it was an electronic music-jazz music fusion show, but it was the genesis of the whole ned troide series and became the ac/dc shifter as it is properly
is there any audio or video of either shifter?
Humm, I wonder if Ned thought of this before or during his time in jail?
