Make the world your instrument with the Specdrum music ring

Want to make music without dropping a wad of cash on fancy, singular instruments? Then put a Specdrum on your digit, an app-enabled ring you that perform the magical act of turning colour into sound. Just connect to the Specdrums app and tap on anything – clothes, drawings, food, furniture – to create and mix sounds, beats, and loops based on the vibrant hues you just interacted with. It’s a genius concept that offers an accessible, portable, and tactical way to discover the art of music creation, and it also happens to look hella cool. Price and availability not confirmed, but keep your clickers poised on the Sphero website for an imminent update.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
