a net of (played) sounds becoming denser
As much repetition as possible.
As much change as necessary.
On the first day the players create sounds (together), repeating the sounds until the sounds begin to change by themselves. With this new sounds they proceed equally.
Everything from the first day will be recorded and played back on the second day. The players have the choice to mimic the sounds from the first day or to add new sounds.
The second day will be recorded (the playback from the first day plus the sounds of the players from the second day. The players have the choice to mimic the sounds from the first and the second day or to add new sounds and so on..
After five days the net is complete- a calm, slowly changing continuous band of sound consisting of repeating structures.
In the evening players and audience listen to a one hour excerpt from the recording of the day.

excerpt:
INFILTRATION 01
a phonography of the site where the concert take place will be made and played back after the following rules:
Every day 4 hours of sounds will be recorded in the neighbourhood of the concerts place.
An one hour composition will be made out of these recordings.
The piece will be played back every evening.
The composition could be played together with other compositions. It will be played so soft that it blends with the city-noise and only peaks will be audible. All the recorded material and the composition will be deleted every evening after playback.
