Soundmachines. Created by The Product
In an alternative universe, Thomas Edison never invented the phonograph. We figured out lasers, computers, and MIDI audio first. Then, and only then, did someone think to place grooves on a disc and spin it around, reading its bumps to make music.
The lasers interpret each disc’s colors, textures, and swiss cheese cutouts as inputs for MIDI processing, meaning that blips of information become beats and notes, and physical textures become audio textures. In this way, the listener hears a digital symphony from the simplest of analog shapes, and any shape can sound different with the slightest adjustment to the software
