"For this project both artists explored abandoned industrial spaces in their respective locations and shared their photos, collages, field-recordings and amplified acoustics.
Out of this source-material they created a composition of beautiful industrial soundscapes accompanied by their collages of "exploring urban space".
For the performance, sounds of the release were used, reworked and rearranged - combined with reworked recordings of the sounds of gamelan instruments of the Bronbeek museum in Arnhem, The Netherlands. Recorded with the help of Floris van Rijswijk ; Jos Jansen \ ensemble Koesoema Boedaya.
