Really loved this, Zhenya! I learned so much about the history of music boxes across time and around the world. I hadn’t fully connected Switzerland’s role before, but it makes total sense now. I really enjoy how you frame music boxes as embodying effort and making sound visible. And hearing slowness and memory, super inspiring!

Thanks, Alexandra! I’m so glad to hear it inspired you as much as it did me when I wrote it :)
It always blows my mind how much story and life is hidden beneath cultural pieces like these!
