A steel acoustic horn resonates freely in one corner, where an attached contact microphone and speaker driver facilitate a feedback loop of itself. Another contact microphone is attached to a vertical Amerimax aluminum gutter downspout pipe that feeds into the horn driver. On top of a black file cabinet sits a mixer, which houses the microphone inputs and driver output. Inside the top drawer of the cabinet are twelve 3.5 millimeter to ¼ inch stereo adapters—standing in three-by-four formation. Suspended above the Amerimax pipe is a rainbow parachute, officially branded as an “Institutional Play Parachute” by its vendor. Sitting under the parachute on the floor are two cathode-ray tube televisions that are playing a sequence of images posted to the Google Reviews and Instagram pages for Texas Roadhouse, located in the U.S. Army base of Camp Humphreys, South Korea.
