contents We propose "Insect-Computer Hybrid Speaker", which enables us to make musics made from combinations of computer and insects. Lots of studies have proposed methods and interfaces for controlling insects and obtaining feedback. However, there have been less research on the use of insects for interaction with third parties. In this paper, we propose a method in which cicadas are used as speakers triggered by using Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). We explored and investigated the suitable waveform of chirp to be controlled, the appropriate voltage range, and the maximum pitch at which cicadas can chirp.
