Summary:This paper describes the concept and realization of The Drum Pants, a pair of pants with sensors and control switches, allowing the performer to play and record a virtual drum set or percussion rack by hitting the thighs and waist with the hands. The main idea is to make a virtual percussion instrument with a high level of bodily control and which permits new visual performance possibilities.
