Tetracosa is a 24-hour piece, being released over the course of 2018 in eight three-hour installments. It involves 350 unique sound objects categorized and layered such that no two moments are alike. Some objects are constrained to a single hour or volume and others spanning the 24-hour duration. Inspired by the i-Ching works of John Cage and the composers of the Wandelweiser tradition, sound placement and duration was determined using random number generation and the objects were recorded independent from one another without regard for potential interactions or alignment. This is the second of the eight volumes.
