Headphones will play (and visualize) what you’re listening to

The essential headphone has come a long way since it was first introduced to the public in the 1930’s, from portability to sound canceling technology, and now they may be coming equipped with OLED displays screens.

Designers ChanHyun Park and SeJi Kim have developed headphones that can show a visualization of what you’re listening to on a display panel featured on the ear pad. When playing your favorite EDM track, these concept headphones can show dynamic color sequences, light waves, pulsing flares and other visual elements timed to the music – kind of like the iTunes visualizer for your head.

If developed, these headphones will be on the forefront of a new generation of music-visual technology. Can you imagine walking down the street with these colorful, dynamic pieces on everyone’s head?

elektro will take you behind the turntables into the lives of the DJ, sharing their passion for the music, giving fans an all access backstage pass.
