A piece of tropical hardwood is transformed to a box containing the disappearing rainforest. Opening the box you will find a corpse of a cicada and a bare memo machine.
As you press the button to play the sound on the recorder, you hear the sound of a wood cutting circular saw. It recalls the sound of the cicadas in the Amazon rainforest. To impress the females, the males can produce up to 100 db.
