The Wreckord Player

2016 · instrument / independent

A record player that forgets what it's playing.

The Wreckord Player intercepts a record player's audio and runs it through a granular synthesizer on a Raspberry Pi. The volume and tone knobs still turn — they've just been reassigned to synthesis parameters, so the same gestures that used to control a stereo now tear the sound apart.
