Tree music

The history hidden in the rings in an slice or stump has always fascinated me. It's a secret language waiting to be deciphered, like stumbling on a stranger's journal from some foreign place or different era. Bartholomäus Traubeck, a German artist, has found a way to turn the mysterious history hidden in tree rings into music using some crazy lazery turntable. I wonder what would play when they cut me open. Probably Joe Walsh or something similarly horrible - I guess I'd have it coming.
