At the Game Developer Conference there were several students from the Rochester Institute of Technology showing off their banjo controller used for games such as Rock Band and Guitar Hero.  The students gutted the wires and buttons out from a guitar controller and moved it into the banjo.

The students involved in the project include Michael Ey, Sela Davis, Alex Lifschitz, Joe Pietruch, and Dominick D’Aniello as a project for Professor Schwartz’s Alternative Controllers Seminar.  The project was called “Oh No! Banjo.”

All you need to complete this picture is the guy to be wearing overalls and have him chewing on a weed.
