A live, improvised sound collage experiment, going back 26 years, weaving mesmerizing new soundscapes from found and collected materials right in the present moment.
Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming.

Listener comments!
Hey, hi, Kenzo and HNY!
Rodman in N.K.---wierd.
Hey Carmicheal: The Ondioline photo. Greatness.
I feel like giving up.
Can't you walk a dog without owning a smartphone?
It's still cool, even with the cutouts.
I don't know the details.
The phone thing is crazy.
I can't even type about it for fear of it being read and hurting my chances of earning a living.
I have had no phone, even woth a bell, fo ten years. Just a voice mail service.
Now I use google to call out---which is gross, of couse.
Needing a smartphone and having to be willing to send "tons" of texts is ......... I fell speechless.
Informative. :)
Like power-outages.
OK, before I could send the above, the stream connection screwed up again. So much for my vacuum's extra powers. On the other hand, this electro chop-up could potentially pass for a Ken's Last Ever... (in a good way)
Unbelievable.
I blame the NSA.
smartphone required, "tons" of texting a given.
I guess the masses are getting more and more accustomed to cancelling or changing plans on a moments notice.
Who cares?
There's art going on here.
I was listening via the pop-up player and got caught in one of those hiccup episodes when the connection is lost. Listeners are still required to stop and re-start the pop-up player whenever the stream switches from one source to another (or, as in the current situation, when the connection is lost and reconnected).
Result of a greed mindset, if you ask me.
"So what, Bliss."
One should laugh off that temptation and live life.
Of course, Hawking depended on technology to move around, etc.
You can change your mind and not quit, then reconsider and quit.
You can do whatever you like.
Yae!
?
That'd be cool.
They always got a raw deal.
Which show will be #500?
Nevermind.
I see a total.
I needed that.
