It also plays like a real guitar: when users hit the strings on the ‘guitar neck’ on the poster, this would translate into a note or sound that would resonate from the amplifier linked up to the poster.

On April 16, the creator of a parody Twitter account called “BenSmithsDad” got an ominous phone call. It was the culmination of an odd sequence of events: Two and a half years before, he’d become an avid practitioner of CrossFit, the grueling workout craze.
