In this response to the Self Cancellation project, Lee Patterson dissolves medicine in glasses of water and explores the sonic content.

Nikos played every note that it’s possible to play on the cello, all played back as a one hour drone, while the cello was turned to powder and bottled.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
