about

The moment that Cyril Ramaphosa's words were uttered, they had already become a distorted echo of how they would be seen in the future, after this event, overlaid by the equally distorted overtones of our own sentimental preconceptions of belonging and paternalistic security.

Here repeating string figures, overlaid with a recording of the actual news broadcast, were processed in real time through a home-made continuously variable echo unit as well as a one-transistor distortion box with variable bias. The result was this live recording, made a few hours after the announcement.
