All participants were invited to programme one hour with you- as the sole prompt. The result could be a mix of live and recorded (or entirely one or the other). There could be a visual element throughout, or partial, or none at all. An open structure welcoming coherent incoherence (or, incoherent coherence). A radio-but-not-really-radio event where you and you and you share the same nonplace.

First in a series of twelve annual events taking place on December the 12th from noon to midnight GMT (7-7 EST, 5-5 CST, 4-4 PST). Each year the event will move through each word of the 12-word phrase you and I are water earth fire air of life and death and activate the word of the year in myriad ways. This year it all starts with you-. It always starts with you-.

"What more is there to say? it feels like the year ends every day

I look this way I look that way

piles of paper and static clay

I'm always having to ask myself if this is the one,

the one way, the one day, the one say,

Entrench the clay, under fingernail splay

grit grain and grime grabs me away

blody ell mate take me away

i'm flat stanly the cardboard felt flatten

frozen in place with no heat and no energy

not even any wind to lift me"

Commissioned new work from contemporary sound practitioners and other audio choices from experimental electronic collective The Spirit of Gravity.
