01 Electroacoustic A Mechanics of Almost VI Endobody The body as an arrangement of internal spaces: vocal cavities and a bass drum's enclosed volume, working from their structural similarity.

02 Electroacoustic A Mechanics of Almost IV Aerolith An air-column instrument beside a resonating metal surface: bass-clarinet breath and multiphonics exchanged with a bowed cymbal's slowly transforming partials.

03 Electroacoustic A Mechanics of Almost II Afterglare The zurna's penetrating upper spectrum treated as a physical condition: sustained tones extended, upper partials exposed and separated until the instrument's apparent singularity fragments.
