Piece based on DJ tweeters by Michael Lilley.
"This treasure is named as Tweeters used as part of a DJ setup and categorised under hip hop music, which (semi-tangentially) led me to think about sampling....
"Every sound in my entire composition evolved from a (heavily manipulated and treated) single sample (of Imogen Heap singing the short vocal phrase which can be detected weaving throughout the piece).
"I made the core of this piece using a solo jam in endlesss.fm, including the stereo effects (as a response to the physical curvature visible in the image) before restructuring the exported stems using jamm pro and mastering it with final touch. All on an iPad."
Part of the Smithsonian Treasures project, a collection of new sound works inspired by items from the Smithsonian Museums’ collections - for more information, see http://www.citiesandmemory.com/smithsonian
