Artist statement:
"pinkfoot's fragments are cut from vocal improvisations done in the house while the baby slept – just a mic and a reel-to-reel tape emulator: there's sound poetry, Ami Yoshida/Junko overidentification, some rattling on. Compression and EQ are instruments and also feature. I projected some of the snippets into different environments—it's often good to drag withdrawn things outside—and populated others (my partner and daughter, my father-in-law, geese). Uncanny/on the cusp of too intimate/spectral but mucky – that's the hope. I'm just trying to say hi and then listen; maybe you'll say it back.'
