ghichak 39' or this way madness lies

39' long improvisation, incessant, changes
in fits and starts, stutters, needs retuning
about a third of the way in, retuned,
continues again, tangles with itself,
entangles, there's that high-pitched sound
around 6k on occasion i haven't been able
yet to trace, probably the result of the
short cello bow i'm using, picks up again,
towards the end settles down for the last
five minutes or so, more difficult than the
cura. my high-speed on the cura was around
45 notes/sec.; this is slower but close to
the collapse i'm sensing in the novels of
mary woronov i'm reading, or even moreso,
towards the firewall theory in the bleak
incessancy of black holes, listen listen
listen listen listen you're luck still to
be alive listen listen
