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. | ||
