This awesome ad for Nike by W+K Tokyo features Free Run+ shoes fitted with accelerometers and flex sensors being used as controllers for Max MSP audio software.
Hardware by Tomoaki Yanagisawa of 4nchor5 la6 and Max MSP programming by Daito Manabeof rhizomatiks.
Sidenote: Interesting that the tagline for the new Nike shoe is Run Supernatural.
