Jessie Stead’s Punched Interlude works are made out of found police barricade tape that she punches holes in and then runs through a music box, the music is composed by her as audible reflection on barricades and no go zones throughout the city of New York in area of Donald Trump. The music box is attached to a gum ball machine globe which acts as a resonator, amplifying the music that results from the punched holes.
