Viewed from the Steve Silverton Beach Blanket Babylon Gallery Terrace at SFMOMA.
The San Francisco Marriott Marquis opened on October 17, 1989, the day of the Loma Prieta earthquake. Due in part to its new, seismically sound construction, the giant 1,500-room, 39-story hotel suffered only one broken window. In the days that followed, the hotel opened up its rooms and ballrooms to welcome refugees from other nearby hotels that suffered more damage and were deemed unsafe.
Frequently called the "Jukebox" it has become a widely recognized part of San Francisco's skyline.
Thanks for stopping by!

Seen playing on a visit to Dunham Massey Gardens on 14/7/25. Lovely music. Looked them up on YouTube:
Medieval Jukebox: Harp & Hammered Dulcimer Duo
“A unique and ethereal combination of celtic harp and hammered dulcimer with a play list spanning the centuries, from hauntingly beautiful medieval ballads to foot-tapping renditions of modern day chart toppers. Magical music from Bard to Beatles and Bach again.”
This was taken at Volo Auto Museum in Volo, Illinois. There is so much more than automobiles there. There were a dozen or so jukeboxes, this one being my favorite. It's a 1947 model 1080 Wurlitzer. To me, it looks like a dogs face ;)
Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
The seed heads of hollyhock flowers remind me of the circular record selection in a jukebox. Apologies for the poor quality of this photo. It was taken in a dark corner of the garden.
or the rubikea's cube
week 10/52 - letter J
photo 10.1
as i promised, here's the ikea-related rubik's cube, requested by spina di pesce, aka mr.hood.
he wrote me something like "i'll tell you a single word: IKEA. let's see what you're gonna pull out of that rubik's cube!"
i found it was a great hint for a new project: the photographic jukebox.
you tell me one word, and i'll try to make a picture about that using the cube. i'm not promising anything, but if you wanna play with me, i'll do my best.
about this picture, the original idea of the setting belongs to another flickr fellow, antonio iacobelli, aka jacobson-2012: i was very impressed by the wonderful ikea-rose he made some years ago, and i've reproduced the setting with the cube.
grazie a entrambi per l'ispirazione!

Introduced in various other forms in the 1890's, evolving to some of these rainbow color light Jukeboxes that became the automatic musical players of the day in the late 1920's.
The first jukebox was an automatic phonograph produced in 1927 by Rowe International, then known as AMI.
These music instruments were extremely well built and have survived to this day in the hands of collectors and museums.
The shellac 78 rpm record dominated jukeboxes until the Seeburg Corporation introduced an all 45 rpm vinyl record jukebox in 1950.
fun fact
The term "juke box" came into use in the United States in the 1930s, apparently derived from the African-American slang term "juke" or "jook", meaning "dance".

accordion sounds @ Kokerei HANSA, Dortmund-Huckarde
"A former freight container was transformed into a mobile sound studio with a lot of love and spray cans. Inside and in front of it, the old sounds of the respective locations were made audible again: the technoid pounding of the pneumatic hammers and coal planes at Nordstern colliery, the ambient clouds of sound over the coking plant, the industrial-minimal beats of the rolling mills - they provided the basic track for a live transcription of the old sounds."

A car dealership in Warner Robins had something non-vehicular that had me oohing and aahing - an old Wurlitzer jukebox!
I didn't try putting a quarter in it, sad to say ...

I really like the sign atop the Public Jukebox installation in Norwich; all copper and proper glowing bulbs. Brilliant. Public Jukebox is by Krištof Kintera, a Czech artist and sculptor, it offers an eclectic collection of music and sound recordings at the push of a button.
