Mucem
Marseilles, France

Café Juke-box showing films, made up of three parts with a Formica case. The lower part, on castors, consists of a door and a speaker at the front. Above, there are buttons displaying numbers and letters with which to choose songs, as well as a coin slot. A mechanism inside means a series of 8mm reels can be read. At the back is the power and volume button and the power connector is on the left hand side. The middle portion consists of a glass pane behind which there is a selection of music videos. Some of these are slides, (Claude François, Village People, Dalida...) others are just cards bearing the handwritten name of the artist or song, (Cerrone, Dick Rivers, Sheila, etc.). There is a letter and number corresponding to each song. On the upper part is a screen. At the back there is a lift-up door where a mirror made projecting the films possible.
