Flutter remix, 2001

"Remixology doesn't replace a track so much as proliferate
it into parallel alterdimensions."-Kodwo Eshun

Originally presented outdoors on a rooftop, FLUTTER was constructed
from two overlapping sequences of helicopters in flight.
The interaction between the two helicopters was deliberate and climactic.
FLUTTER REMIX is a singular effect from the original composition
reduced to an austere minute and forty seconds.
Similar to the way scratch artists isolate a breakbeat, we have isolated
the sound of a fly-by. The resulting "sequel" is a portable extraction from
the unique piece.
Installed indoors, it periodically (every ten minutes) produces a blanket of noise
over the existing cacophony in the room.
