Minimalist gramophone

Created with three materials, paper, wood and metal. Operated by their own hands.

from designmadeingermany.de:

Ich bin gerade nach London gezogen, um mit dem Bachelor mein Grafikstudium zu beenden. Da ich mir weder vom Geld noch vom Platz einen Plattenspieler leisten kann, habe ich selbst einen gebaut.

Highfidelity exhibition - Berlin

An exibition’s broschure with a Shure stylus?
What’s happening?

To mark the 60th anniversary of the vinyl record, the exhibition presents the sound archives of the Marzona Collection with 300 selected artists’ records. Associated books, musical scores, posters, design sketches and photographs provide context.

The LP record offered previously unimaginable possibilities for artists to preserve and publish their work. Recording, cutting, fading, mixing and layering by way of a spool of audio tape enabled the creation of acoustic scenarios that had before been unrealisable. As a storage device of voice and sound the record brought with it the promise of authenticity, the direct presence in an acoustic sense, of the speaker, singer or player.

This promise of ‘high fidelity’ even became a popular advertising slogan of the day. Several artists then began recording their own voices on audio tape and having them pressed in vinyl, as well as designing the cover and label of the record themselves and distributing records under their own labels.

The radical change this brought about around 1960 in artistic practices was a surprisingly fresh response - even in today’s familiarity with rapid change - to technological innovations and commercial advertising. Also new was the decentralisation in the forms of LP distribution, and attempt by artists to make the medium work to their own advantage.

TurntablistPC - Computer/Turntable hybrid

A dear Friend suggested me (really thanks to Ju) this funny PC-Turntable:

The designer is Mogens Jacobsen.
From his website:

“…TurntablistPC is a server which third-party websites can access. A small file is hosted on the TurntablistPC. Subscribing websites place a short piece of code on their pages. This code sends information to the TurntablistPC. When somebody visits one of the subscribing websites, the TurntablistPC spins the record.
Control is remote and hidden. But output - audio - is local only (through speakers in the TurntablistPC)…”

Again, turnablism and design a great combo!

Peaceful, sunny and happy new year People!


Diggin’ #1 - Beats 4 Breakfast

Ogni tanto aprirò la valigia dei miei dischi per mostrarvi qualcuna delle perle che custodisco tra vinili, hard disk e preferiti del mio browser.
La maggior parte di questi post saranno scritti in italiano, l’idea è quella di dare un po’ di spazio alle realtà “locali” che più mi hanno colpito e in minor parte a ciò che arriva dall’estero.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Il primo post di Diggin’ è dedicato a Beats 4 Breakfast.

B4B sono un duo di produttori Vicentini Dj MS (Sweet Poison Street Team) & Mo’Rox.
Entrambi producono con MPC 2000 xl e campionano solamente da vinile.

Buon ascolto!


Christmas dedications

peace unity and love People!
