Their concerts of alarm clocks can have the image of a classic orchestra strengthens the idea of a removed and absurd situation or take the form of installations and Performances. An outdated utilitarian object becomes the element of a sound composition. The alarm clock shows changes in our society : it is the symbol of work, the «duty to wake up in the morning». The performance changes the perception of a sound considered usually as a call to order.
