The selected space and its sounds were not performed in or with so much, as recorded and later messed with on the fly.

The basic recording included some tapping of hollow square metal posts and keys dragging on metal tube hand railing or against cinderblock walls. All this in a multi-story apartment stairwell as recorded with a humble sm'phone running Titanium Recorder.

Later on, using Gleetchlab3, various parts of the recording were looped and played back at varispeed--most often much slower speeds to pitch down the sounds and stretch out the ambience.

The mix was trimmed in Audacity.
