• Art, Death & Robots: Meet the Winners of Russia’s First Award for Young Science Artists

  …ce of making bootleg vinyls (known as “ribs” or “bones”) from X-ray films. Such records could only be played about eight times before becoming too damaged for further use.  To solve this, the artist used photoconductive properties of the film to get musical information by shining a light through the material. Thus, the sound is literally made from light. As a rewa…
