Recreating the tactility and ritual of music collecting.

Play & Display is a unique wireless hi-fi that stores and plays your MP3 collection, but also prints the album artwork. No longer will your music only be accessible by a long list of album names on a computer. Your mp3 music collection will, proudly, be displayed on your wall, for all to browse and experience. As the collection grows the albums concertina along the shelf.

Computers are increasingly encroaching on traditional archetypes of storage and display in a domestic space. In the case of music; MP3’s have replaced CD’s, with songs now being stored digitally. It is a move from physical to virtual; making the CD collection, case, and artwork redundant.
