To create his composition, Moritz built robots from different parts of the Polestar 2. He then had each robot extract a sound sample from within its components, either a physical noise or the changing electromagnetic field. Moritz then took those sounds and created beats and wrote an original composition with them, essentially turning the vehicle into an instrument. Take a listen here.
