"One Meter Per Minute is a piece within a series that fossilizes one-minute-long compositions for paper-fed music boxes into visual artworks. The title comes from a fascination with the idea of measuring music in meters instead of minutes, and a general interest in the music box, whose paper strips can be at the same time a score, a recorded medium, and a graphic visualization of the sound. In the piece, visual and temporal space play equal roles in the composition process, and the piece’s musical procedure can be visualized in graphic space." (Passepartout Duo, 2020)
