Episode Details

The sample of the workmen shovelling the ice to cleanup the market space has this rich, raw, physical and rhythmic texture, and an overall flow from start to finish. It's a story of a changing states - and I felt like accentuating these changes  would be an interesting direction.

Of course, ice itself changes state, and that sparked the idea to use various states of water - rain, frost, snow, meltwater, rivers, oceans, dripping, boiling steam - as the accenting elements to create quite a gestural piece. The source sample is left in place, and no effects are used on the various field recorded elements other than volume shaping (it felt like the piece itself was very raw, and did not need adornment).
