please, do something else my brother... i saw you do so many bad things in this vid. someones watching you from above saying, "no, not yet."

You should make a guitar with water in the soundhole

❤We love you, Mattias. I can believe you made an electric arc piano (which are NOT good to look at, by the way!). I can't believe you ate that meat...

Make a flute that shoots flames, and give me credit by saying my name in your video, clearly.

@Don't Read My Profile Picture ok

This comment made me laugh.

I don’t feel a thing. My nerve endings has completed way to many circuits lately!

Oh! It was no accident! LOL!

It's only because no one else is Chad enough to try these experiments.

Shocking

I want to hear my music directly from the stream! Of electricity

@@Mattiaskrantz lol, your amazing.

@@Mattiaskrantz ... Van de Graaff generators exist.... 😉

he just made analogue synth xD =

I mean. Its a very special sound. An emp ptoff recording setup could make this very cool.

By far the best comment lol

I just thought that too, dude is crazy 👀

Lol

Underrated comment.

Hahaha

I would say Electroboom's infamous "Jacob's Ladder" incident takes the #1 spot. The high voltage wires fell towards him when sitting in front of it. He instinctively reached out and caught them... He only survived because the wiring pulled free and disconnected it.

You never See me at work 😂

how many strings does the most badass piano have? NONE.

Hahahh first hammers, then sparks and now high voltage. This is also a super cheap quality piano makes it even better!

@@Mattiaskrantz best piano yet. Can't wait to hear more played with it.

I feel like it's the Davros of pianos in a way.

@@Mattiaskrantz you should cover many songs with it, before it kills you

Lol, the "Acoustic Synth" would be a good name for this thing

But it’s an electric piano?

An Electrosynthpiano.

720

@@SuppositionalBox I think "plasma organ" would also work since it kinda sounds like an organ.

Perhaps not the highest sense of self-preservation, though 😅

Don’t forget electrician

LOL

Hahahahahahahah

But in the end, this is incredible

Underated comment

oh no bro this is bad loughed tho shit

Is there a statistic, how many youtubers killed themselves actually? Someone should do a "worst of..." rating.

We need a new Nobel Darwin award.

Well, it wasn't actually that, but related to electricity anyway

I don't think he can die from those arcs, the transformers in old TVs have too low amps to kill you. It's unpleasant to get shocked but not a real problem. When I was a kid I used to unplug the high voltage terminal from the screen's hole and hold it in my hand and my hair would all raise up from the high voltage. I occasionally got shocked when the current arced to other components but it wasn't bad, it just stings and may leave a burn mark.

@@HDJess But he's using 10 transformers that weren't from TVs.

@@HDJess As an electrician i can say don't do that, the amount of current required to kill some one is tiny.

@@boxenwolfegaming674 You know what they say, it's all about location, location, location.

Hahahh to say the least! Thank you🙏

He is slowly turning into Styropyro but with pianos instead of lasers.

@@rodryguezzz you may have just given him an idea for a future experiment

@@rodryguezzz collaboration to make a mad scientist laser piano when?

Surprised he didn't LIKE it

As like Like a video

every fiber of my being as a builder is screaming for there to be an insulating sheet between the operator and all the electronics, it desperately needs a casing so its vastly safer

@@ThommeGun I'm no HV expert but those white and purple arcs looked like the power was coming to ~2-2.5kV so probably a MOT powering the circuit. That spark gap so close constantly causing all that arcing made my soul hurt, at least get some PTE sheeting on there, the stuff takes about 300kV/1mm so even just that alone might have helped.

@@Defirence it is a bunch of CRT flyback transformers, but yeah, still dangerous

Same here.

My education and early career is in electrical engineering. I love it too. But if he were 10 years older, and maybe have a heart issue, I wouldn't love seeing it so much. Reminds me of the classmate who thought it cool to jump in and out of a little microwave repeater demo we setup to transmit music. He thought cool, until I reminded him the crotch high cone's signal is being absorbed into his nether regions.

Moderately worried he was going to electrocute himself the whole time

@@nstimm02 more worried about OC's username tbh

@@zackhenderson2392 didnt even notice lol

You could say he's gone mad with power ;)

Yeah, calling this man an engineer is an insult to all engineers.

heh, "currently"

​​@@renx81 As someone who is in software I disagree this is amazing

- 'they' should use this instead of an electric chair !!!

shocking you say?

@@TinyBolts1 Yeah, what’s wrong with that?

@@ChrisNeufeldMusic (electroshock joke)

I think it was much more shocking for him than for us

@@ChrisNeufeldMusic *shock* -ing

Yeah, let's boost this one youtube: this is a really important comment lmao

yeah I would rather him not die

Alternatively no playing with high voltage ever again I nearly had a panic attack watching this video 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏 no amount of KZfaq fame is worth dying over.

Or someone else finding you not knowing what happened and also getting shocked

@@stuchly1 but the results WERE worth dying over.

After the monitor started flickering, I was really surprised that none of the cameras were affected. They must have some pretty damn good RF shielding

My Sony cameras has been waiting for this moment it seems!

Ironically, I thought he added special FX to the footage. But after watching the video, I realized the high EMF was the culprit, lol

Essentially it is a synthesizer though. The computer is making a different tone (electrical pulse frequency) based on which key it detects moving. The piano element of it is purely aesthetic. As he showed early in the video, the sounds could all be made by a single hammer. Aside from making the sound through arcs instead of speakers, it would perfectly fit into the definition of a synth.

I'd say this is not a piano. It's not a pianoforte because it can only play forte, not piano. It should be called a Forte. Or an Arcsichord.

@@IamGrimalkin I like Arcsichord

​@@IamGrimalkinArcsichord!!! Hell yes, that's an awesome name for this! XD

Electroclavier, perhaps?

This is incredibly dangerous.

This bit killed me 😂

🤣

steak in G-dur is a worthwhile opus)

I threw me too. Loved it though

This comment had 333 likes, so I decided to ruin it

Oh I bet it is griffin. I bet it is

Not electrical, but enough of an engineer to agree.. pretty cool how he kept going tbh

What if he wore an extra pair of rubber dish gloves?

@@4isteven58 🤔 yeah.. that oughta do it

As a practicing therapist, I also find terrifying.

Thanks Goaty! I tried really hard and somehow it worked in the end!

@@Mattiaskrantz I really think you should make a follow up where you deeply refine your design. EMF shielding on everything. Heat resistant insulation and fastening between the hammers, make it all pretty and safe, and find a professional pianist crazy enough to try the damn thing ;)

Probably cause you understand the dangers of this alittle bit... Too much..

@@TactfulWaggle I think the high frequencies and low-ish currents may save him in most cases. Frequency plays a huge role, so depending on how his audio modulation works, the played tone may be the deciding factor. I’ve accidentally touched a similar ~70kV arc and it just about killed me. On the other hand, I’ve touched a much higher frequency higher voltage arc, >500kV at >100kHz, and didn’t feel a thing. It is very up in the air so I definitely wouldn’t touch it 😂

Thank you!! I don’t think I have if the insurance company sees my vids

@@Electronic4081 oh my god, i can't believe i just got ratio'd in a new way XD

as if good life insurance would help him

Do you know what song he plays at 13:20?

Was wondering

More like 2 bit

​@@jaredhared isn't there a probability he improvised? A skilled musician can generate such simple melodies without thinking.

not sure but sounds like imperial march@@jaredhared

Thank you hahahh🤝

imagine how the electricity cost going to be higher than the string maintenance cost

@@basocheir Oh yeah...

@@basocheir shhhhh, ignore that part

@@basocheir also the strings dont kill you and burn your house down. which is a pro i guess

Everyone gangsta till it *Lags*

At this point I think it's closer to the burning edge...

🙏🙏

Hopefully not literally

hopefully not in a PSA as a black and white photo :(

uh, no. this is unbelievably dangerous

@@DocterWaffles cope

This isnt even a new technology. It’s just an analog version of digital synthesis. The science behind this has been known.

@@Senriam Of course it's known but there is some artistry behind it. Our current technology is known but somehow the exaggeration and the hyperbole makes it unique. Yes it is very dangerous and requires expert hands. However a perfected instrument with this type of dramatism is quite artistic too. Yes there are risks that should be considered.

@@DocterWaffles This is more profound than anything you will ever do in your entire life. 😂

Isn't the amps what kill though? I mean, i didn't see the amps he used (at least not yet), but usually the amps aren't high

@@davyzeradaspalmerait’s enough amps to cook a steak in seconds

@@davyzeradaspalmera120 Volt DC and 60 Volt AC is considered dangerous and harmful. The saying “amps kill” doesnt make too much sense.

@@nikola119 It does make sense. Voltage is simply electrical pressure, you need high voltage to be able to transfer electricity through the air (not a good conductor). Ignition coils/spark plugs in cars are in the region of 14 thousand Volts, it will give you a small shock but it wont harm you. It doesn't take a lot of Amps to cause damage to someone but for electricity to kill you need a high enough voltage to push the electricity through the natural resistance of the human body, and a high enough current.

​@@gitanonumero1983Styropyro on youtube has a good video that explains why the "its amps that kill" saying is not the whole story. I would highly recommend it if you have not seen it.

Thank you!! Do you want it?

@@Mattiaskrantz I would likely kaboom with it. Don't let me near it!

@@Mattiaskrantz I'll take it.

@@Mattiaskrantz ill' take two. Lol

@@Mattiaskrantz i take it and I don't even play piano

Voltage don't kill but current does. That's why extremely high voltage with small current is not as dangerous that many thinks. It can cause burns and damage the nerves but most likely don't kill. Still there's a reason to be careful because you can't know what kind of currents systems are capable of putting out. Large capacitors are dangerous because they can supply very high short term powers and raise the current even in high voltage systems.

@@teropiispala2576 This is a common complete myth. Voltage or current do not "cause" anything. For ohmic systems, they are a relationship I=V/R. High voltage systems are absolutely dangerous, as are high current systems. If you think high voltages aren't dangerous, open up a CRT monitor and read the dozen WARNING: RISK OF DEATH stickers on it. Because it's using the same component, a flyback transformer. As for low voltage systems, take a look at all the warnings on your arc welder even though it's only 20 volts. Anyone online who tells you MAINS connected electricity isn't dangerous is a liar of negligent proportions. You do not mess around with mains without planning and knowledge. Those that do, google all the people who died or lost entire arms taking apart their microwave to build a "homemade welder" a couple years ago.

@@Novous I'm sorry, Chris, but Tero is right about the current fact. Current is the only thing that determines how dangerous is an exposition to electricity. You can touch two electrodes with a Voltage of 10000kV, and if the current is not more of 0.1A, you are not in any kind of danger. However, Tero is wrong saying that there was no danger. There definitely was!

Also considering this is working at 22.5 khz it adds another variable? From what I learned, this piano is more of a fire hazard/risk of burns hazard. While the risk of electrocution isn’t nearly as high as the capacitor piano. It probably exist if you are creative, but considering it took me 45 minutes to cook a steak to 50 degrees this piano looks more scary than it is. But with that said, I wouldn’t want to go out and test any theories😅

@@teropiispala2576 that’s not quite true , let’s see you touch 1,000,000 Volts with just 0.2 amps and tell me how it went 😂 The truth is both but in a proportion

It actually started with me making guitar covers when I was like 14 years old my youtube journey is quite uhm unusual😅

It was one of the most entertaining parts of the video!

I could really feel the music, my piano teacher would be proud

@@Mattiaskrantz Could you feel it coming inside you?

Slowly…

And the mica should be taller so your hands can trust your eyes at the sight of seeing the heights of the arcs, the height and intensities of the arcs should equate to forte-piano, but holding key-presses down shouldn't lead to arcs criss-crossing or leap-frogging... then invert the code (if you have not already as you have more than noted that resultant quality) that the QRS optical sensor strip mitigates or cuts off so that the tones sound voluminous to dissipating so your muscle movements and reactions synchronize with your senses and physical transpositions along with adopting the hammer designs of the recommedations above from the Nonchallant Shallot, consider fixing the hammer heads (lower surely) at a sharper angle so the arcs can be thrown to their wiles and the whims of playing upon the key-presses, results would be like getting a bigger display screen, that the actions of the hammers are moot or niche for the actions within the arcs themselves but moving parts are mesmorizing as well, eye-candies clean it up and it's a remarkably enjoyable thing you've got, maybe not so much wire length throughout the system? or at least insulate [the majority of] them appropriately... would resommend insulting each key-press set for maximum playabilities in terms of hours and long-held key-presses ... before the CoVid, some cities and urban areas had pianos around randomly in public spaces that passers-by could stop and tickle the ivories a bit, a while... love the idea of a Play at Your Own Risk sign

Mehdi doesn’t do very unsafe things. This project is actually dangerous.

He didn't crack open 10 microwaves to make it Styropyro would

Ahead of their time 😞

It’s not entirely wrong, they did use electric synth waves, it’s a similar process just a lot more…. Sophisticated? They are big companies with millions though so

@@RetroDotTube "similar process"

@@MiguelBaptista1981 yeah, synth waves are similar to electric waves, the frequency rate creates the sound. Essentially an electric arc is a synth wave

I actually got one like that… but I was so invested in trying to make the piano play that I forgot to use it. Procrastination is dangerous I guess!

"This is the way"

"plasma arcs or beams or whatever it's called" yes this seems like the right kind of guy to be experimenting with this stuff lolol

😆😆😆😆😆😆

Thank you! Yeah I have trouble giving up on things which Is a curse and a blessing! I’ll talk to the VST guys. I’m not entirely sure how to record it to make sense

Since the loudness is affected by the lenght of the arc and can be controlled by the player hmmm

@@Mattiaskrantz Glad to hear it! Thanks for the response. Good luck and stay safe! :D

Just needs to start wearing a faraday cage and he's good to go. But yes, to go from "I made a piano with metal hammers" to "I made a piano spark" to "let's play music with an arc" is a.. very concerning level of escalation. Next thing you know he's going to have piano keys wired to bombs

Stephen, stop giving him ideas lol

“While being filled up with water”

Colab with Styropyro to make a Laser Piano Nexyt?

He's most definitely a Madman especially not shielding between himself and the hammers
