This was my submission for the Sensing Electromagnetics album by LOM.

Burning Chrome is a composite of four recordings (three captured with an Elektrosluch-3, one captured with an induction coil) of devices that connect us (router, phone, modem, Chromecast). It's named after a short story by William Gibson that details a cyber-heist performed by two hackers; it's kind of what I imagine an induction recording of that situation would sound like.
