Frozen Records are made of ice. They are moulds of Vinyl singles. Each frozen record plays music for about 10 min. One can play a record usually only twice then the ice is getting too warm, i.e. the records looses its form and can&#8217;t function anymore as a medium.  The water from the ice runs down the record player and one can only step into the rests.<\/p>\n<p>The Viennese musician Nik Hummer has composed various pieces with <a href=\"http:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Trautonium\">Trautonium<\/a> for the frozen records. This is what I heard, when I went to Tesla to hear and  to see the frozen records. It was just impressing to hear the music varying with the melting ice. Claudia M&auml;rzendorfer said, that there is also music with other instruments. And there are other compositions for the frozen records. Each mould has its own music and dynamics. The music is there in the very second, it is changing constantly until one has to switch to a new record, i.e. a new medium for another transient music.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"image720\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/wp-content\/2006\/11\/frozenRecords2.JPG\" alt=\"frozenRecords2.JPG\" \/><br \/>\n<img id=\"image721\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/wp-content\/2006\/11\/FrozenRecords3.JPG\" alt=\"FrozenRecords3.JPG\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#ff0000\">-update 29.12.2012- some later similar projects:<br \/>\n&#8211; by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.katiepaterson.org\/icerecords\/\">Katie Paterson<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fastcodesign.com\/1671478\/a-record-made-of-ice-that-actually-plays\">Swedish band &#8220;Shout out louds&#8221;<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4,18,7],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/722"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=722"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/722\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5139,"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/722\/revisions\/5139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.randform.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
