Environment 4
Not such a huge space, but some really interesting resonances. 2005-08-18 By the way, I've been looking at Digital Musician, a service that allows musicians to collaborate online. I used the Rocket Network a few years ago to collaborate with David Azarch in NYC to create the Bossa 'n' Bass track from the early days of this site. If you're interested in an online collaboration, let me know.

Reading
This is from a key moment in the film. All the music was created by using the sounds from the film itself, dialogue, background noises, etc. and mutating and modifying them. 2005-08-14 By the way, this marks the halfway point of the Daily Ambience project. I have reached 182 tracks. Now might be a good time to consider a donation - you can use Amazon or PayPal. Just follow the links in the column to the right.
