chair / splint / lamp 3" CD series set

from steve roden

set of 3 limited edition 3" CDs released in 1997-1999 in an edition of 1000 each on new plastic music.

2-color printing on cream paper insert in poly sleeve

a series of three 3″ cds, each created using only the sound of a single modernist design object – a leg splint designed by charles and ray eames, a lamp designed by george nelson, and a metal chair designed by harry bertoia. i suppose the initial ideas came from “strumming” these things as i passed them in our apartment on a daily basis as well as the notion of wondering weather bertoia even played one of his chairs.

Includes unlimited streaming of chair (a subscape of resonance) via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
