  3. 03

    Shape

    Cut until it holds.

The four words

Who worked on each part is listed with the track, not here. These are the words it uses.

  • human

    Done by hand, start to finish.

  • mixed

    Hands and model both on it.

  • model

    Generated. The work is choosing, steering and discarding.

  • —

    The stage does not exist on this track — which is not the same as doing it by hand.

Hear it first

A short note when a track is finished. No schedule, no filler — it goes out when there is something to hear.
