As the crow rituals

Kurama-dera temple reimagined by Graeme Rose. 

"I never realised until the day after that I had started editing and rearranging parts from the original sound source on the Shinto day Setsebun-sai, which ties in with my playing with the audio of 'is the crow participating in this ritual, or leading it somehow?' leading to thinking about cities being interactions of human and non-human persons, with cities more as an ecology than a man-made environment. 

"I wasn't sure how to emphasis that so parked the mix for a bit, and decided effecting and reversing certain parts to place underneath would highlight this human/non-human interaction. 

"The underpinning idea behind the remix is to acknowledge Future Cities are more ecologies of all species rather than ignore it as in the past, like that spider in your bathroom feeding on other little things in your bathroom."
