This piece was composed during the 2020-2021 COVID global pandemic. Unlike other pieces that I composed during this period, pieces that all served as a means of escape, I wanted to use this piece as a way of documenting what my life has been for the last year. I started writing this piece by creating a list of the most common sounds heard around my apartment, I then asked my partner to order my list along a spectrum of anxiety.
