This fortnight’s loose_conn ection is predicated on various shades of more-or-less digital murk; static-like grit & woozy amorphous rumbles half-hidden in the 192kbs stream.
Bold assertions are made by adults about history & rhythm & we witness a child’s pronounced glee upon observing the logo for a budget airline. A couple of minutes are spent killing time on license premise and we hear a variation on something previously only shared with a friend & a forest in winter.
Also: a gesture is made to the sonification of a section of a map of the San Andreas fault, the Metro system’s part-pretzel configuration is noted & explored in loops of escalator noise, & gestures towards an approximation of a remix of A Scanner Darkly’s Since It Happened are made.

“There have been two periods in my inner life, two idées fixes. The first period consisted of me working with directors with whom I totally identified, like François, like Jean Eustache. When I was working for François, I was like François. When I worked for Eustache, I was like Eustache. Same with Godard. In the second period, which I am living now, as we speak, I no longer identify with the director but with my character, and I get great pleasure working with someone like Olivier Assayas, who writes so well and is so intelligent. The third period I’m not so sure about—it could arrive any minute now.” — Jean-Pierre Léaud
