1000 people watching a tractor concert in southern Sweden is only one event documented in this magnificently designed book. “Automatism of the Rotation” presents several of Johanssons pieces of music written for automobiles: crescendo and decrescendo – elements of classical composing - find their way into a world of familiar sounds presented in a new light. Honking signals from cars, the sound of Harley Davidsons, windwheels and other sources of sound are being interpreted in a unique way.
