Man makes music by moving facial muscles, creates new genre: twitchtronica (which sounds a helluva lot like the severe electronic needlepoint of Ryoji Ikeda and Alva Noto).

For some reason this reminds me of Jody Rosen's excellent piece in the new Best Music Writing (2009) from the NYT where he describes how they mixed a "visual drawing" made in 1860 into a sound recording. Pre-dating Edison's work and anyone else's so far.

sorry dude, its the other way around. the music is linked to the electrodes on his face - they deliver an electric current that twitches his muscles.
