Corax is a collection of different samples of raven calls, birds known for their intelligence and imitative ability. These sounds were manipulated by echoes and reverberations in an attempt to come closer to further imitations, to other voices. The result is a vaguely ghostly, sneaky, hybrid narrative, that is difficult to recognize and indentify, a sort of pholonoly suspended between biological vocatives and digital contaminations.

Corvus Corax, from the title come, according to Linneo’s nomenclature, is the name of the raven.
