Cicely Irvine ~ Excavation
A September-soft light flutters around Cicely Irvine‘s Excavation. The new season brings with it a new start, a new day. The golden music of Excavation awakens in the Fall. Summer has gone, but its ghost still haunts the air. The

V/A ~ Gomel, 1986
In her book Chernobyl Prayer, Svetlana Alexievich says that “Chernobyl is, above all, a catastrophe of time. The radionuclides strewn across our earth will live for 50,000, 100,000, 200,000 years. And longer. From the perspective of human life, they are

Mantle ~ Quiet Music
Quiet Music drifts on and on. At first, low-flying drones give birth to deep, dense textures which hang ominously up above, but they barely ruffle the still air.
