Arc Attack at Maker Faire 2010 in NYC

For the opening night gala, Faire participants got to witness a killer performance by Arc Attack—a group famous for using Tesla coils as musical instruments. "It was one of the most visually spectacular things that I've ever seen, and probably the most visually spectacular band I've worked with," party organizer Adam Aleksander said.
