The work was premiered on the ABC Classic FM Festival of Birdsong in January 2005.

Commissioned by the ABC Regional Production Fund for ABC Classic FM and ABC Radio National -- Composer's note.

SUMMARY: The work combines field recordings, interviews, computer-generated sounds and studio recorded music.
