Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
Edition of 35 lathe cut records on transparent plexiglass. Each record a unique loop at at the end. Lathe cut records are handmade and imperfect - mono, noisy, with a lot of character.

These pieces were inspired by sounds I found and objects I recorded: sound effects from the Flintstones, my grandma’s chimes, a water bottle, and my voice. I like seeing the variety of sounds ordinary objects can make and find their origin stories meaningful when later combining them in a piece.
These pieces were also a response to a summer studying Pierre Schaeffer for my PhD exams & dissertation. His music and thinking wrestled with what it means for a sound to be musical or anecdotal, and how recording transforms or erases the meaning of a sound.
This also led me to have this music cut to plexiglass records, similar to the technology Schaeffer used in his early pieces. Each of the 35 records were hand cut and they all end with a unique closed groove at that loops endlessly. I plan to use these records as instruments and sound sources.

How do I describe this peculiar yet pretty album? Animal Crossing meets Aphex Twin? Its like the soundtrack of an early 00's British children's television show inhabited by friendly living sculptures created by Goshka Macuga and Steven Claydon. Neither they nor the viewers at home understand why they were made or what it all means, but they still feel pretty fantastic! :3 Ben Harris
