I feel a little bit gross, but it's really cool," she said.Japan’s DJ Doooo not only makes music but also wraps everyday objects in realistic-looking human flesh. "It's like so realistic that it definitely takes you by surprise," said Laura Teale, 22, an Australian tourist who stopped to ask Masataka about the artwork hanging from his neck near the capital's bustling Shibuya Crossing. Out on the streets of Tokyo, his creations also turn heads. American rapper Lil Yachty posted a video of himself clutching one of his blinking balls on social media in 2021. His art has caught the attention of celebrities, Shishido said. The bespoke items do not come cheap: USB devices and the ink stamps in the shape of fingers cost around 150,000 yen (US$1,166), while the disco ball he wears costs about 580,000 yen (US$4,500). He draws the designs by hand before a Tokyo studio called Amazing Studio JUR takes up to two months to turn the concept into reality. Shishido says his art is often made-to-order by customers who request their own body parts on the items. "Once people learnt that it's an artwork with some specific function, they started saying that it's cute and interesting."

"In the beginning almost everyone felt it was gross," Shishido, 36, told Reuters, wearing a disco ball with a blinking eye on a chain around his neck.
