detail of Silver Sounds, 2009This is a project that pares down a record player to its bare bones. Only a few parts are needed in order to succeed. It is inspired by the Card Talk players that were produced by the Global Recording Network (a Los Angeles based organization that is devoted to spreading the Christian gospel). This record player requires only the power of the listener to drive. Thus, it provides a more personal relationship to the content provided. The act of making this simple record player and using it to listen to vinyl creates fresh connections that are formed through the experience of making, problem solving, and sourcing.
Silver Sounds was my submission to the This & That Show (Curated by Christine Wong Yap at Triple Base in San francisco) where all artwork was to be able to fit inside an 9" x 12"envelope.
