one day in composition class I asked everyone to make a noise that I would then record and manipulate. I recorded 17 seconds of it, chopped it down to a microsecond of that and used musique concrete techniques to create this piece.
metal heads on the beach
the seagulls rest on their ears
100 feet high
100 long years
their metal hasn’t broken
still shiny and bright
their eyes open up
with these big yellow lights
they put themselves together
walk away and go
into the trees
into the ground
waiting for years
so they can appear
