Still Life No.4 is a recording of old Pueblo drum stewarded in the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center collection. The location and date of the drum’s origin are not known. A single drum hit was captured and inserted repeatedly into multiple accelerated audio timelines, allowing the instrument to align with the ‘speed of life’ of other living beings in the building.
