I would lie on this chaise longue for hours, sipping green tea and caressing a meek and mild Ocelot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hubert Zemler<\/strong><br \/>\nIf music was furniture it would be something that isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t essential for living, but essential for being a human. Something that could be easily dispensed of, but you would miss it. Something that contains love, hate, tears, happiness, sadness, calmness, enthusiasm, boredom, amusement or any emotions you can feel. Something which sometimes contains nothing. Something which not everybody needs or wants. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 Maybe music would be a wine cabinet?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bartek Kalinka<\/strong><br \/>\nI would like music to be a stove. Because it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a place where cooking is done, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s an alchemical altar, where substances are transferred by the music\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s heat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kamil Szuszkiewicz<\/strong><br \/>\nA bed. Definitely. Human civilization has began when people invented some kind of bed (no, not a circle; circle was much later). We are born in a bed, we die there, we sleep, fuck, lay there looking up to a ceiling and pondering. The rest of a lifetime seems to be meaningless interruption. I want music to be like that: ancient, basic, necessary (in a way).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Birut\u00c4\u2014 Asevi\u00c4\u008di\u00c5\u00abt\u00c4\u2014<\/strong><br \/>\nMusic is not material thing, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard to materialize it\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 But\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 if music could be a furniture, it could be \u00e2\u20ac\u0153pufikas\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (tuffet with removable top). You can put anything inside, but nobody knows, what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really inside it\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 It can have many segments inside, but it can be empty as swell. And you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel you really have this kind of furniture (music), it exists somewhere, beside you or very near. It can have different forms, many segments or just \u00e2\u20ac\u0153to be\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tadas \u00c5\u00bdukauskas<\/strong><br \/>\nIf music could be furniture it would be a window. Medium between myself and the Images of the World or the Imagination itself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Piotr Bukowski<\/strong><br \/>\nBilly Bookcase by IKEA \u00e2\u20ac\u201d basic furniture in every home. You can use it it to store whatever you need, it uses space effectively by accommodating various items in a minimum of space. Known all over the world, flag product of IKEA, cheap and practical.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ilia Belorukov<\/strong><br \/>\nA couch. One may sit or sleep on it; one may also unfold it to get more space. It is not a univocal piece of furniture, it has multiple functions. The couch reminds me of the fact that music is just as multi-faceted, and the perception of sound largely depends on the listener \u00e2\u20ac\u201c namely, his or her wishes\/moods\/needs. If you want to lie down, here you go; if you need more seats for guests \u00e2\u20ac\u201c just move the couch closer to the table. One can immerse oneself in a music piece or merely use it as a background.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maarten Ornstein<\/strong><br \/>\nFurniture? Well, a bed I suppose. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nice to lie down in some good music.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lina Lapelyt\u00c4\u2014<\/strong><br \/>\nIf i could be music and if this music could be furniture then with no doubt i would prefer to be music &#038; furniture than just to be furniture or just to be music. If i could be music, furniture and a woman \u00e2\u20ac\u201d that would really please me! On the other hand \u00e2\u20ac\u201d i would probably annoy somebody if i am a sofa or dinning table that always produces a certain tune.. How boring it would be to have me around! I probably would end up being thrown away\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 and the good thing about that is that undoubtedly i would travel to a new house &#8211; somebody would be very happy to find a musical table or sofa that maybe is also a woman. So to be clear &#8211; i would like to be a little drawer in the closet &#8211; so i am only audible when wanted.
