This work is a collection of different sound clips that have been recorded from everyday life. The composition of the clips have been arranged in a very choppy short similar to that of flicking through tv channels or browsing the internet, where the user quickly goes from one place to another and only focusing on a particular item for only a few moments. The track also transfers between the left and right speaker, which has a felling of a conversation between the sounds or the movement of one's place in a particular area. With this movement the audience is able to explore the space in a different way.
The work has elements of UVA's (united visual artists) work called "Speed of Light" which was an installation using record sounds from different sources and the movement of lights. Part of the work has elements of the light searching around part of the installation, picking up different sounds and noises. The sounds jump quickly over and around the different noises appears to be a constantly evolving element as new sounds from the audience are being added every time it goes over the area. The location where the work has been positioned has elements of the work called "Lament for a Drowned Love" by the artist Susan Philipsz, this work is a sound recording of a story underneath "George V Bridge" in Glasgow. The two locations are both underneath a means of connecting to area's together, it is also an area where members of the public can walk and contemplate at any time with out restrictions.
