about

1. Safe 'N Sound

This sound painting features a menagerie of music boxes as well as swinging chimes, a wind-up toy, and random field recordings from around the house. The voices in the mix come from the 1979 record, "The Multi-lingual Bird," an album to help train talking birds to speak Spanish, German, Italian, French, and Yiddish.

2. Show Us Your Kitties

Our beloved friend “Show Us Your Kitties” whimsically reflects on the relationship between isolation and connection, in conversation with a range of field recordings.

3. Hall of Mirrors in the Sky

The breakdown becomes the breakthrough...Hall of Mirrors in the Sky integrates a pump organ, gongs, and a variety of field recordings.

4. Lonely as a Cloud

This soundscape is inspired by William Wordsworth's poem, "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud," featuring birdsong and other instrumentation (e.g., shruti box, chimes, singing bowl, rainstick, and mbira), in addition to a short solo snippet from the poem, "Mapping the Source," by our dear friend, The Teafaerie: erowid.org/columns/teafaerie/

5. By Our Paws

Created by The Quarancat Choir: Leopold Le Moonfleur Von Purr Purr McCatskill, Matcha MiMoo McGrumps, and Bindi Princess

We live in perpetual quarantine and we hope that this cat-centric jam evokes the various emotions that come with isolation from a cat's perspective.

6. Interwoven Beings

The Currents New Media “Currentsoundscapes” cycle five theme “Embroidered” invited contributors to weave together sounds from the four previous soundscape cycles, incorporating sound art from other project contributors. “Interwoven Beings” features excerpts from Jar of Sparkle - “Behind the Door” (week 4 “mine own hands”); LØBØG∆MM∆® “CS4.0” (week 4 “mine own hands”); and Sara Marinelli “Sheltered” (week 4 “mine own hands”), in addition to a range of field recordings from Peru and Myanmar.
