Hi, this is my debut album Balun! In addition to a standard digital release I wanted to create something that doesn't necessarily fit into the traditional record format.
So, my friends at Novalia and I have made the world's first LP shaped audio poster using technology enabled by integration of conductive ink, capacitive touch and conventional electronics to provide a musical experience in a new format, combining science, design and music. Touched by your finger the poster plays the songs from the album through a built in speaker and includes buttons for volume up and down!
I love old formats like the cassette and the vinyl record, physical objects that bring back memories. I hope this Balun poster shows a fun example of how music can become physical again with the help of new technology.
Love
Cornelia
Available for a limited time and number only. The package also includes four 'pillow stickers' so you can attach the poster to the wall without damaging it and create a better sound.
Here's a video to illustrate the functions of the audio poster: youtu.be/3__ZDlQ9alM

Oh well
good things do disappear
with time
Consider the big picture here
Assess
We're in a war zone now
fought by
one force
the only one to persevere
Oh well
Look at me now
standing on your doorstep
I've packed my bags
and you kiss me on my forehead
whatever you're trying to tell me
I'd rather just ignore it
I don't know the right words
what's the language for it
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Make it a quick good bye
We tried
But it could not survive
Some day
we'll meet in a hallway still
where you'll say
hope you are good and keeping well?
Oh well
Look at me now
standing on your doorstep
I've packed my bags
and you kiss me on my forehead
whatever you're trying to tell me
I'd rather just ignore it
I don't know the right words
what's the language for it
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
