A live, improvised sound collage experiment, going back 28 years, weaving mesmerizing new soundscapes from found and collected materials right in the present moment.
Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming. [On hiatus.]

I don't think I could do what you're doing, make this show and also write to people, but if there is a me part of you, then I guess I can?
Mightn't each of us hear and see the me part of you rather than the us part of us? or maybe it's the we part of we?

Am I asking for insanity? Is enlightenment insanity inducing?
how can i join someone who i already am? how would music happen without time?
might i prefer music to enlightenment? i might.
maybe i found the current tragedy. maybe i found my failure to contribute.

After thinking it over, notice nothing much lasts
But if you're in a hurry, and really got to go
If you're in a hurry, might have to find out slowww
That it's one thing to try and another to fly
You get there quicker just a step at a time
It's one thing to bark, another to bite
& the show ain't over till you pack up at night
Thanks KENZO
