"The Centipede's Dilemma" by Katherine Craster from Pinafore Poems, 1871.
A centipede was happy – quite!
Until a toad in fun
Said, "Pray, which leg moves after which?"
This raised her doubts to such a pitch,
She fell exhausted in the ditch
Not knowing how to run.

I really want to do a session where we all walk wherever we are and listen to each other’s sounds.

Leg After is a project that springs from repurposed audio using a very particular balance of formula and flexibility. Each installment will be offered for free on bandcamp.
Pieces will include a fixed number (in this album's case, 3) of elements fed through three or four stages of sample manipulation, which will include various means to sometimes suggest pitch from unpitched material. Pieces will also include a 4th channel of select notes derived from one or two of the processed channels.
The ongoing project name came from somewhat tenuously connecting "Tea With A Friend" to various writings from the 19th century and then to the poem reproduced above.
