Hair Music

Can human hair be used to string a violin? What would this sound like? These are the questions that inform a project aptly called Hair Music. After a decade of hair growth, Tadas decided to collaborate with violinist Eimantas Belickas to produce an experimental music piece, using a violin strung with his own hair.

Selected Publications

Hair Music was selected for the HAIR! Human Hair in Fashion and Art exhibition at the Centraal Museum, Utrecht. The project has featured on numerous blogs, including Gizmodo, Juxtapoz, Vice, Designboom, The Huffington Post, Noisey, The Mail Online, as well as shown on React to That, Tracks, Right this Minute, QYOU, Outrageous Acts of Science and Duck Quacks Don't Echo. Hair Music is also included in Ripley's Believe It or Not! Annual.

Behind the Scenes

A quick look behind the scenes of the Hair Music video shoot. First, we experimented with hair extensions and different kinds of superglue. Once that worked, everything else became simple.
