“Marked sound”–to challenge the transparency of digital recording and interrogate its internal structures & create sounds that would not exist without the medium itself pushed into/against the digital grain: with analog, real-time tools, chase the level of distortion signals into self-cancellation and crackling “silences”, hydraulic, gushing and soaring white noise, explosions of color, tubes of rushing air, valves, very physical, at times sounding like the work of a horn or an journey through the intestines of a particle accelerator.
