One of the highlights of the first date of Bjork's colourful and trance-styled tour was the special appearance of Mr.Antony Hegarty who sung a duet with Bjork. I really enjoyed her show-especially the choice of tracks as well as the beautifully colourful backing musicians.
One particularly exciting aspect of the show was the featuring of a mysterious turntable which a guy was playing by moving various pieces around and 'tuning' various sounds and noises. It looks like a space age glowing board-game and although my Showstudio inspired phone-images are rubbish-they do show to some extent what im trying to discribe.
This other-worldly object is called a Reactable and may be the coolest thing ive ever seen. i have 2 links for demonstrations i found online- has anyone heard/seen or even better,tried this beautiful object.
Please Nick-buy one........and give it to me when youre bored of it!

In reply to Galileo's Universe:
Im glad you liked it-thanks for your feedback.
Joking aside- Nick have you had a chance to try out the "Reactable?" Im not big on shooting 'still life' photography but id kill to shoot during one of the freestyle sessions with this stunner!
In reply to Turbo:
It's fantastic Turbo!
I 'd love to do a piece with one of those,they look amazing.
I have a piece planned with Naomi and Quincy Jones that I am working on ,which is slightly in a similar zone.I will keep you posted if that comes together.I might be able to combine both projects,which would be great.
