3D printed touch sensors with conductive ink

This is a video I shot from part of a large interactive installation I did recently. It consists of three steel tubes that have four 3D printed tube-segments each. Each segment is painted with the conductive ink from Bare Conductive and they light up and plays rain-sounds when touched.

Inside the tube-segment there's wires that control the blue and white light and there's also wires that connect from the painted part, up through the roof to a Sparkfun MPR121 breakout that handles the touch-sensing.
