What's happened here is an adaptation of speculative worry, observed but not felt. Empty vessels filled to the brim, and emptied again. Content™ triggers refactorization of Eternity into eternity[n-1] and everything which was real is now ceramic. Magic happens in the space between Listening and the listener, where there is only verbs. And just outside that there is eternity manifest upside down, combing its hair.

pantea is a Jaw Harp virtuoso and part-time fruit taxidermist from Tehran.

"The beautiful paradox of Things is that it carries the “sense” (another vague encapsulator) of continuity and organic momentum, even as these sounds contort in such a way that refutes the kinetic language of nature, spasming disobediently against gravity and skeletal design. It beckons obsessive repeat listens, offering the vague suggestion that repeated exposure might lead to a sharper, less ambiguous render. Yet each time, this quivering sprawl refuses to collapse into something definitive. If anything, the contradictions only seem to grow in size."

"... these are pliable emanations dancing across the auditory range, placing themselves in front or behind us to tickle our attention, peek-a-booing from corners. In a word, they are the fruits of intelligent experimentation."
