Old Spice unveiled a highly interactive musical piece on Vimeo, featuring Terry Crews, one of the brand’s Guys. The former NFL player, who has been communicating the “power” message to public in a series of Old Spice commercials, now turns his own body into a machine, which produces music. In the new video piece, developed by the brand’s agency Wieden & Kennedy and director Tom Kuntz, Crews is sitting surrounded by musical instruments including drums, saxophones, a guitar and synthesizer to name but a few. But basically it’s not him who plays all of them—numerous electrodes are attached to his muscle groups (pecs, triceps and sartorius adductors among others), which activate the instruments with each muscle contraction.
