"The art duo Coppice (Noé Cuéllar and Joseph Kramer) capture the sound of mechanical technologies at the Yerkes Observatory in Williams Bay, Wisconsin just before and after more than 100 years of operation (it ceased in 2018). With reference to media archaeology theories, the audio paper Stewardship to obsolescence and preservation: listening to specimen music through Yerkes Observatory’s refractor and reflector telescopes is a “self-reflexive documentary experiment of music and phonography, obsolescence and preservation”, exploring, representing and reframing the status of the laboratory while vanishing."
