Description
This is a stereo version of a piece I wrote for one of my groups at uni. Inspired by a few ideas including masks/lies and sounds revealing themselves over time... I came out with this little piece that describes reasonably well what I think of the two main politicians in my life.
It seems that everything is either so convoluted and complex that the truth of what they are doing never shines through, or in a small moment it reveals their incompetance, power-mongering and loyaties.... all of which depress me a little more.
All sounds in this piece are derrived from the 4 samples clearly heard. There is also a surround sound version of this piece.

Bryan, this is a stunning piece of political commentary as well as art.
The sound fluttering by, revealing bits of the words a little at a time
created a very unsettling effect and forced me to focus and pay
attention to what was being said, which so often we don't do. The
spaces between the clearly intelligible audio really effectively evoked
the discomfort so many of us feel about our current leaders.
I think this is so good that it would be interesting to see you work with
a visual or conceptual artist to create a larger installation around the
idea of truth revealing itself over time, using this piece as the audio
portion.
Really, I'm very impressed.
