Our found objects, books + albums, appear in the syllabus and are currently being studied and interpreted for use along lines. In light of the tragic events in Charlottesville Aug 11-12, we took an aural walk down 4th Street NE+SE to see if there were any found objects we could study | use to process what had happened and possibly proffer opportunities to push the momentum in our society in a different direction.

The data generated from the use of each branded platform will be sculpted into sonic material and reappear configured anew as brand-eponymous tracks on an experimental album that really has no end as long as we choose to be the music makers.
