Made with an old record player found on the street.
A turntable is completely taken apart; all of its parts are suspended from a metallic wire stretched between two walls. When the wire is pinched, the vibration – accompanied by a very muffled sound – makes the suspended objects slowly slide against one other in a vain attempt at instantaneous reconstruction.
