Katie Paterson recorded the sound of 3 glaciers (Langjökull, Snæfellsjökull and Solheimajökull) in Iceland. She then pressed those recordings on ice records made of melted water from those glaciers. The records were played on 3 turntables and it took almost 2 hours till they were completely melted. You can listen to one here.
I really like the way Patersons ideas inspire to blend physical realities with different forms of technology to create art that informs and teahces.
