This work was installed into a decommissioned fruit machine and played a repertoire of 36 pieces of well-known classical music which had been arranged in an 8-bit chip-tune style. Using the fruit machine buttons, visitors were able to select a classical piece, put the machine on random, and remix the music in real-time.
