| Collective
Geology of the Erased Space is a 2004 commission
of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., (aka Ether-Ore)
for its Turbulence web
site. It was made possible with funding from the National
Endowment for the Arts. |

In this work,
viewers are presented with an imaginary strata formed from
those lost spaces between sites, machines, addresses and
links as if they had collapsed upon themselves. This strata
is imbued with fragments of conversations, recollections,
errant sounds and pregnant silences as if the memory of communication
had imparted itself on the strata in some way. Stretched
thin like the surface of a balloon, underneath the razor
sharp cursor these sounds whistle like a fingernail across
the surface of a drum-head.

| General Note: It
is recommended that you use a trackpad, rather than a mouse
to interact with this piece if one is available. I mention
this because using a trackpad enhances the intimacy and pacing
in a way which more accurately communicates my intentions for
your experience with this piece. |
