one day back in 1992 or 1993 my friend brian kane made this book called "pi". it was a book made up of the computation of pi. the book was printed from a file. the file has 1258 lines in it. i converted the text file into audio. i manipulated the audio file using A r g e • p h o n t e s  Lyre. i did this a lot. then i arranged these resulting audio files using Ableton Live. then i took a sample from a song called "pie" and did the same thing with it. after that i found this website where this computerized voice just counts off (in french) the numbers of pi, ostensibly with some sort of accuracy (but hey who's counting?). i recorded that too, because i thought it would be kind of fun to use as like "the vocal track". that's pretty much it. it's pretty rough sounding, but i like it.
