Force Theory Band
Active: 1997-2005
The Force Theory Performance Band was founded in 1997 and played stage shows and private events around the New York City area until 2005. The Band was made up primarily of students from New York University. The band's music was a blend of Funk and Electronic. The lead vocals were provided by "Ionic", "Rai"(pronounced Ray) and Master of ceremonies "Mike Noise". The band usually played a 1 hour non-stop set produced by "Sanford" and "Ionic". Their stage shows were known for frenetic choreography, props and inventions. The band claims to never have performed the same show twice.
Ion ("Ionic") of the band developed the "human piano" installation which uses low level electricity to put sound into a person, who is then attached to a speaker system to amplify the sound.
The band's name was derived from the Unified Force Theory.

Peace and safety we shall find.”
