Objects + live animals
This is a device activated by three DJing degus (rodents of South America). The set is presented vertically. The two degus, left and right of the image, turning in their wheel each activate a turntable. The third animal, center, operates the crossfader of the mixer, which determines the sound distribution. That is to say that it is possible to hear, according to the position of the crossfader, one or other of the plates or both simultaneously. The resulting sound is so driven at random. It operates on the goodwill of these animals. (google translation from french)

TurntablistPC – mogens jacobsen
by mogens jacobsen 2005
“TurntablistPC is a server which third-party websites can access. A small file is hosted on the TurntablistPC. Subscribing websites place a short piece of code on their pages. This code sends information to the TurntablistPC. When somebody visits one of the subscribing websites, the TurntablistPC spins the record.
Control is remote and hidden. But output – audio – is local only (through speakers in the TurntablistPC).
The location of the remote website controls the direction of the spin. If the website is located east of the TurntablistPC, it spins clockwise. If it is located west of the TurntablistPC, the spin is counterclockwise.
The distance to the visiting user determines the amount of spin. If you are near the TurntablistPC, you will only scratch the vinyl. If you are far away, it will play a whole section of the record.”
interactive speakers
“Using a combination of RFID technology, Processing and Arduino, the speakers work as location aware controllers, allowing the user to interact with music and the environment by moving the speakers around.”

Floppy-ROM
In August 1976 at the Personal Computing show in Atlantic City, Bob Marsh of Processor Technology approached Bob Jones, the publisher of Interface Age magazine, about pressing software onto vinyl records.
The idea was to record the program on audio tape in the “Kansas City Standard” format then make a master record from the tape. Eva-Tone made “sound sheets” on thin vinyl that would hold one song.[7] These were inexpensive and could be bound in a magazine.
The May 1977 issue of Interface Age contained the first “Floppy-ROM”, a 33⅓ RPM record with about 6 minutes of “Kansas City standard” audio.
