| Thumb / Index | ||
| DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL | ||
| SHIPPING CHARGES APPLY | Ryan Conrad Sawyer’s special edition record, Thumb/Index, is a two-sided LP that | |
| was produced from scans of his thumb (side A) and index (side B) finger along with | ||
| STORE | engineer Leigh T. Hanes. The record can be played on a standard turntable, producing | |
| CONTACT | a sound piece that is completely unique to the artist’s fingerprints, or treated as a | |
| sculptural work. | ||
| This is not your typical phonograph record. It has the potential to damage your | ||
| turntable, especially the tone arm and needle. That being said, if you are willing to | ||
| take the risk you will be rewarded with a unique listening experience. | ||
| To play this record you first need to attach a bumper to keep the needle within the | ||
| grooves. Any small cylindrical object will do, and can be attached easily with a strong | ||
| tape. The record is designed in such a way that the tone arm will tend towards the | ||
| center of the record, so the bumper will prevent the needle from skipping off the | ||
| grooves and allow the record to play indefinitely. | ||
