The long way home

A slow descent from rounded rhythm to open space. Three sides, two short pauses, and nothing to hurry.

A suggested sequence

Beginning.
Middle. Afterglow.

The first side establishes a language, the second turns it, the third leaves something open. These are imagined compositions described in words; this page does not play them.

The remaining 23:45 is allocated to introduction, pauses and closing conversation. No track is cut to fit the session.

One thing to notice

Notice the last sound of one side and the first sound of the next. Are they close in colour, or does the new beginning change how you remember what came before? There is no correct answer; this is an invitation to attend.
