Sound experiment based on the audio of an interview from the “radio” show The Sound of Young America.

The idea behind this was to remove all almost all audio except for the portions referring to the secondary functions of language, like the emotive (non-verbal sounds) and the phatic (referring to the message itself or to the communication channel).

The Sound of Young America is a great show hosted by Jesse Thorn, who kindly gave me the permission to use the audio in this work. The guest in the audio used is cartoon artist Ariel Schrag.
