Piano flies in from the future

Who wouldn’t want a piano that looks like an alien aircraft? As an artist, this is really appealing. You could fly to a venue, tinkle ivories, woo ladies, and then fly home — all in one device! Maybe it seats two.

Okay, so it dosen’t fly. But it really plays, and judging from this video video, it plays well and sounds wonderful. This fully functioning 88-key piano was designed by NYT-line for Fazioli, and some pictures are viewable here. The shape was inspired by the sea and its waves, and is supposed to evoke the feeling of movement.

Sorry, but I see ’spaceship’.
