Designed by studio other types, Kinematic Cache is a project by Berlin based Taiwanese artist Yu-Ling Hsueh. Her project deals with the construction of a tunnel through the Xueshan mountain range in Taiwan and the soundscape it produces. From design studio Other Types (translated from German):

It is a transparent cassette that reflects the hollow space of the tunnel and allows light to shine through the cassette. The arrangement of Chinese characters and Latin letters overlap. The inlay is a leporello fold, which in turn also suggests the association of a tunnel. The abstracted topographical image on the back of the leporello radiates something sonorous, as does the arrangement of the texts.

Printed in an edition of 100 copies (Risograph, one-color pad printing, and 4-color offset printing). The typefaces in use are Bastardo Grotesk by Giulia Boggio, Noto Serif TC by Adobe/Google Fonts, and Arachne by Leonhard Laupichler.
