The space where the clock used to be [for Small Audio Art]

What happens when a clock that used to hang at the wall stops working, and is thrown away?

And why do we feel compelled to shake a matchbox, even if we do not intend to use it?

In this work you will not find a definitive answer but I invite you to listen nonetheless, for a quiet exploration of the persistent habits of our memory, of what remains after people and objects disappear from our life, how the sound of their lives lingers long after they are gone.

I created this story for Small Audio Art, a community created by Phoebe McIndoe with artists and audio makers looking for togetherness in a scattered world. The prompt for this audio was 'clock'.
