free form shortwave radio composition created using RF sweeps/noise, dialogue. The first half of this composition is a live radio feed, both very slow and rapid dial sweeps utilized to manipulate tone contrast, feedback and noise, during the 2nd half the initial track is looped then accompanied by a fuzzy rhythmic radio loop and other sounds I generated around my home (a singing tea kettle solo from my kitchen, and grackles from the yard)
