This was a collaborational piece by me and Ben Houston. Not exactly an electro-accoustic piece but it fits here better than anywhere for the time being.

The "Music Box" is a primitive style art controller. It is simply designed to controller anything with patch point. Turn the crank, activate the handmade switches - precision work and especially beautful and strange. Built into a very old and extremely high quality oak box (lab no. 107).
