Ball and Chain (Norwich Castle Dungeons). B. Squeaky Floorboards (Norwich Castle Keep). Created in conjunction with Michael’s artist-in residence for Build Your Own: Tools for Sharing at the Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery. Black and white artwork is printed onto clear acetate, rubber-stamped white cassette labels are affixed onto the shell. This tape was created in conjunction with a multi-holed lathe cut record of the same name.

Track one is the ominous sound of a heavy ball and chain being dragged across the cobbled stone floor of the lower dungeons; track two is a squeaking floorboard located on the balcony level of the Castle Keep. The intersecting tracks abstractly represent the interlocking metal chains located in the Dungeons of the Castle Museum (an area I made extensive use of during my residency)

Ball and Chain" (also "Ball 'n' Chain" or "Ball & Chain") is a blues song written and recorded by American blues artist Big Mama Thornton. Although her recording did not appear on the record charts, the song has become one of Thornton's best-known, largely due to performances and recordings by Janis Joplin. In the early 1960s,Thornton recorded several songs for Bay-Tone Records. Two were released on a single, "You Did Me Wrong" and "Big Mama's Blues".

Squeaky floorboards are caused by loose boards rubbing against nails, or each other. And boy, is it irritating. It's not too much of a hassle to sort it so here are Homeserve's quick fixes to silence your creaking floor. 1. You will need:some talcum powder, a damp cloth,a drill, a screwdriver, possible a 50mm screw. 2. Locating the mischievous floorboard is easy, step on each board one at a time until you hear that annoying 'Eek'.

It's time to grab a blanket, curl into the couch with a warm drink and get ready to binge on a whole lot of streaming goodness. While this only applies to wooden floorboards that don't have carpet on top, you can also try fixing the squeak on your floor by dusting cornstarch in-between the floor boards to prevent the friction that causes the creak.
