Such is the very essence of this work, which utilizes these various strategies, layered upon each other to create a metaphor about grief and loss. For the stereo speakers can be about brothers, lovers, twins and the destruction of one's mate when it is played back through the mechanisms of the other, and can elicit feelings of loss and emotional spasm. And when an assortment of these whole and broken speakers are assembled in the same space and play synchronously, they emit a very dissonant choir that stands in for a society of loss where each of us relate to each other through a veil of traumatic memories.
