Listen "A Cage Collage (disquiet0479)"

Episode Synopsis

A literal interpretation of John Cage's proposition: “The sound of a truck at fifty miles per hour. Static between the stations. Rain. We want to capture and control these sounds, to use them, not as sound effects, but as musical instruments.”
It comprises a number of short recordings of the above-mentioned elements, randomly assembled into three longer sequences played simultaneously.
