Both the background and the golden bars of the marimba are radiated by a beautiful pinkish magenta. Three musicians stand behind an instrument: on the left, a white man with a silver wave of hair and finely shaped goatee; in the middle a white man with dark brown hair, short cut beard and black circular rimmed glasses; and on the left a white long brown haired woman with dangling circular earrings. All three stare transfixed at three fluorescent ping pong balls either descending or ascending, above the instrument below. They each wear clothes for a party or a talent contest: the man on the left sports a confetti golden jacket; the woman on the right a shiny golden sleeveless dress. Together they flank the man wearing a jade regal green formal jacket.
