A tribute to small futile projects and general random thinking

Stereo Sound Box

Wood is good; or an old metal lunchbox.

Attach a contact mic to two opposing sides of the box- glue, tape, anything - at some level of permanence or professionalism.

Use the box to transport whatever and then plug the 2 mics into some sort of stereo amplifier/mixer

The mics react to very small touches/poundings on the wood/metal thanks to the material's resonant quality.

The stereo amplification gives this amplified space a real feeling of depth, and movement within this space is projected well through the speakers.

*for added impact, buy some 50ft guitar cords and separate your amps on opposite ends of your block or building*
