Crank-powered jukebox. Single button switches tracks. Contrary to the title, it often also features prose, music and other location-specific audio recordings.

Really neat. Too much tech for me but I appreciate the whimsy

    It’s a hand-crank speaker with a button!

    And capacitors that last as long as the longest track so you crank it up in a few seconds and don’t have to keep turning.

  It’s the lowest-tech device that can do this with sufficiently low running costs to make it free. Much better than the more common infrastructure of QR codes and a server.
  
  And there are hiking trails with information panels that have this technology (the button switches languages) for accessibility to the visually impaired.
