The diamond moves lightly, almost dancing, through the grooves of the red plastic. Suspended from the turntable system, it makes a journey through noise, melodies, refrains and verses - and sometimes through silence.
Somewhere the diamond suddenly feels the whiff of the late sixties and sees The Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol blurred next to him.
