A live, improvised sound collage experiment, going back 28 years, weaving mesmerizing new soundscapes from found and collected materials right in the present moment.
Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming. [On hiatus.] (Visit homepage.)

Funny. I'd long noted that some people's names were differently colored but never knew why. Pathologically, just thought to myself that's it's because everyone is better than me.

Jim Owen says: "When I sat down to write it, I didn’t know what I was going to do. The Song Fight title that week was “Welcome To_____”. I started to mess around with the Windows startup sound, and was having fun with that, so I kept at it. I was way into Beethoven at the time, as I recall. After a couple hours it dawned on me “hey, this might be a thing”. I finished it the next afternoon. That was it."
