PYGMALION: Tesla Coil

Start by tapping 24,000W from the electrical power grid. Hook up two humongous Tesla coils that create 20-foot lightning bolts. Wire in computer control for music synthesis capability. Add a guy in a protective metal suit (Dr Zeus). Toss in high-voltage apparatus to do amazing things with the white-hot plasma. You've got the formula for the Masters of Lightning, a fantastic musical lightning show you'll never forget with Terry Blake (U of I @ Chicago alum, metal suit man) and Chad Wahls (U of I School of Music, Tesla coil operator).
