Muzak Architectures is a work by Ingo Randolf and based on an adaption of his installation urban needle. How does it sound if the needle of a record-player is not put on a record, but plays back a room? Instead of a rotating record it would be the needle spinning in the room, turning the principles of a record player inside out. The room carries all the informations of the sounds which are usually played in the wellness spa Hummelhof and is a wave-shaper at the same time. The room is a muzak territory which is sounded out by a hard listening scanbot.
