Disques – Phono

Subject
Disks - Phono - first sketch (see second, third, fourth sketch).

Description:
A disk partially hides a parrot. The parrot is there because it is a beautiful exotic animal that attracts the attention of passersby. But it is also there because it is capable of repeating a piece endlessly, like the disk. Its beak is hidden by the disk. So we don't really know where the sound is coming from, the disk or the parrot?
