\nManifold Basketball<\/em><\/a> includes four tracks that focus on the connection between sound and different types of space, between the close and distant locations, using for this purpose a spectrum of reverbs and \u00e2\u20ac\u201c often strongly modified \u00e2\u20ac\u201c field recordings. These reverberations were modulated and treated in such a way as to give the impression of being in contact \u00e2\u20ac\u201c if possible \u00e2\u20ac\u201c in several spaces at the same time or in a space that is endlessly changing.<\/p>\n
