The Altogether Horrid Street Ballad Of Paratii by Monochrom

“The Altogether Horrid Street Ballad Of Paratii” by Austrian art and tech group Monochrom is an electronic hurdy gurdy karaoke machine that recounts a gruesome folk tale from the town of Paratii, Brazil. A group of Monochrom members heard the tale during a trip to Brazil in 2002 and subsequently created the machine to recount it. The video above was shot in 2013 as part of 23 Works, a video series about the history of Monochrom.
