LL, thanks for these comments. These assemblages DO seem to have a much wider frequency and dynamic range than many or most of the assemblages I've done previously. I did not use any microcassette or cassette on these albums, which means that the sound is less compressed.

I just listened to this album twice with headphones while writing some correspondence -- a great accompany to my work. The augury aspect hit my ears with a wonderful sense of timing and spacing. The coincidences created a meditative ambience that nudged my attention without burdening me with excesses of aggression nor monotony. I'm thinking that the Hal hearing problems must have taken leave for this achievement to be fulfilled? I hope that this is true, and I hope to hear more Halbums like this in the future.

LL, C3, and Rafa, thanks for your comments. I am happy that you enjoy the album. I forgot to list on the album cover and in the info here that I also used the Moog Model D and the Noisemusick applications for iPhone.
