I quite like this piece, actually. Perhaps it doesn't belong on radio, but who cares? It's interesting, it's outside the box and I found it very enjoyable. Especially the "tidal" feeling that permeates the piece overall. I must respectfully disagree with a previous reviewer who characterized this piece as sounding like a first attempt at using ProTools or CoolEdit. While you may not enjoy this piece, you certainly have to tip your hat to the amount of work that went into it.
My only complaint is the length. As a stand alone audio piece it held my interest for about 2 minutes. Perhaps as an installation, it would be able to be played at it's full length, but as it is, my ears got tired at around 2:05
