Timeless, Infinite Light presents a multi-vocal, improvisational sound piece consisting of language from Emji Saint Spero’s book, almost any shit will do.

Through chance and concurrence, this composition captures the layered cacophony of Saint Spero’s poetry. An immersive experience that evokes the swell of the crowd and the soft breathing of many bodies, “a tenuous we, a more porous I. A we that emerges in the movement between the one and the many.”
