Crabfish

ix 1999

by John Levack Drever

A sonic postard from Darmouth, Devon, summer 1997. This sonic event has been abstracted through the agency of digital media from its autochthonal seaside environment and without any further temporal or spectral modifications is re-presented and re-framed.

In this abstraction we can observe a highly structure musical form generated by four performers in an unstaged (notwithstanding the visible presence of a microphone) everyday social interaction.
