Tinsel is by Christian Marclay who was born in California, raised in Switzerland, and is based in New York City. Marclay made the fantastic video of a car screetching along with an electric guitar bumping and screetching along the highwayÖ also the LP recording the sounds on which were partially formed by ones waking over the records laid out on a gallery floor, etc. Fantastically inventive stuff. Maker of sculptures, installations, videos, and performances.

The box was made in Sainte-Croix by Reuge, the last remaining manufacturer of music boxes in Switzerland".
