Some weird experiment mixing piano and pinball.

Interesting for sure. It has potential if he takes it in the right direction but if the goal is to be able to play a song perfectly.........we all know pinball is never going to let you do that.
Quoted from Crash:How do you know they're mechanical?
I can't say 100%, but based on how hard he's hitting the keys (and most likely if he wanted to retain the mechanics of a piano, harder you hit, harder the hammer swings), then it's mechanical. If you figure each flipper sucks up 1 amp, if you were to hit even 15 keys at once, there's no way that one plug is going to sustain that much power being sucked out (plus whatever power the synth and amplifier is using)
It's an art project, not designed to be an actual game, more of an exploratory piece. Kind of awesome.
