This collaborative piece was created from April to October 2020 as a way to connect friends and to sonically interpret/react to the new pandemic world. Originally conceived for radio, a draft version of "Feedback Virus" premiered on the "Nothing Is Real Radio Hour" on Wave Farm's WGXC 90.7-fm on October 31, 2020. The entire composition germinated from feedback sounds I produced using a turntable. This is the final cut version. Many thanks to my collaborators both nearby, transcontinental, and global.
