Though it may seem like a lot is going on, the way the different elements are arranged and contribute to the whole is a sight to behold. This is Ghost Box which is a playable sound sculpture built by artist and musician Steve Parker.

When touched, the sculpture plays different looped audio clips of coded transmissions, including Morse Code, spirituals of the Underground Railroad, the shofar, the Hebrew Shofar, and the Iron Age Celtic carnyx.

A ghost box is a communication tool used by paranormal investigators to speak to the dead. Typically, a ghost box is a modified portable AM/FM radio that continously scans the band. It is believed to create white noise and audio remnants from broadcast stations that entities are able to manipulate to create words and even entire sentences.
