A face of metal buttons, a tray of a mouth, and knobby turning eyes. A little round glass forehead with numbers and a tiny golden metallic arm that swings from left to right, right to left. Depending on the position, dusty notes of good or bad vibrations emanate. Wooden deco and metal, with small surprise hidden compartments. The top pops, to reveal a circular spinning platform. To one side of this, there is a needled silvery arm that gently slides toward the black heavy grooved disc that I’ve laid on the platform. It touches down ever so softly, with a little “klak” and a “ssss.” On either side, it’s corners rounded with embedded cloth and brass grates. Beauty bursts forth from here, an invisible wave of sound and majestic drama, that sends colors crashing inside my brain. I sit back in my purple chair and take in the air filled notes that dance around me, they intoxicate and demand my attention. It’s a wondrous thing.
