His job consists mainly of retrieving music from old vinyls that may be damaged or broken. He walked us through the whole building before taking us to his technology playground! He showed us an example of a damaged vinyl and showed us how to rectify a sector of the music. We could hear the different whistling noises and crackles from the damages and watched him clear it all up within minutes. I found this very interesting as his ears where very sharp, he identified noises that the majority of us couldn't even hear!
Later we walked through a beautiful home that was absolutely huge! He told us the house previously belonged to a self made family. The arches outside the house were gigantic and had statues of famous people along the rim of the ceiling. We then made our way into the home where half of us managed to get up the stairs and the other half gave in and resulted into using the lift - including myself!
At the very top there was a room which was surrounded by dark, wooden wardrobes that started from the floor and reached all the way to the ceiling. In the middle was an old ironing table that had been converted into a display for a mini museum. They had all forms of music players from a juke box to a vinyl player to the first form of audio recording. This was very interesting to watch whilst I held onto my iPhone 4. The difference and changes in technology is unbelievable!
