Ich weiß ja auch nicht, wer sich derlei Sachen immer einfallen lässt und ich musste auch zwei mal lesen, bevor ich kapiert habe, was genau das hier soll. Dann aber fand ich die Idee echt charmant, wer weiß schließlich schon, wie eine Viertelmeile auf einer Platte klingt? Ich nicht. Bis eben. Eine Idee von Daniel Eatock.
The recording translates the length of its vinyl groove into audio allowing listeners to experience the 1/4 mile length of the spiral as the record is played. Every inch of the needle’s path is audible in the form of a click, each foot as a beat and distances of 10 feet are heard as a blip. These sounds gradually slow as the stylus approaches the center, (the stylus travels less distance in the groove with each revolution of the record). Along the way, the voice of the narrator mentions the horizontal dimensions of particular objects.
