The work relies upon the performers listening to each other and responding in kind. Given the duration of the work it is possible to create large shifting sound characters which evolve over extended periods interspersed with short duration local sound events unique to one object.{br}Because the work is performed for up to five continuous hours by up to 10 independent performers it is never musically the same performance to performance. Therefore, it is very much an improvisational coordination of the sound materials, but one that has become extremely familiar and ingrained in the performers. Since there is no single point of view the work is never heard the same by any audience member, nor by any of the performers since they are arranged in different parts of the space. This is why performers occasionally walk about testing the sonic balance and density in other parts of the space. — (John Driscoll){/small} {br}{br} ''in progress'' {br}{br} ----
