Check out these records made from glacial meltwater straight outta Iceland. Artist Katie Peterson got three of these discs pressed up, and named them Langjökull, Snæfellsjökull, and Solheimajökull, after they icebergs they were culled from. Then she let the records play out on turntables for about two hours while they melted away, their swan songs slowly becoming lost in a puddle of their own makings. Finally some conceptual art i can relate to!

The audio on the discs were actually recordings of the sounds of the glaciers themselves. If you are really hard up for something to do right now, you can zone out to a .wav of some of the ice rumblings right here. Be sure to think deep, profound thoughts while listening…
