Jackdaw & Crow

Noise.
Noise of mechanical structures. Man made machines. Noise.
Natural noise. Noise of the creatures around us. We curse it.
Noise!
Yet, we also treasure the din, for some among us cannot perceive sound.
Van Credenza brings together nature and apparatus, plus two deaf, totally anonymous guest musicians (JD & WMD) for 'Jackdaw & Crow'.
This item wasn't simply played; it was built by Van Credenza. We sent 'Jack' and 'Walter' to capture two live birds to use in the recording. Instructions were issued to our hearing-impaired collaborators (Mr Dow and Mr Marks-Davies) in order for them to construct makeshift percussive instruments. Finally, Tens pain relief machines were attached to both functioning ear restricted drummers to ensure they picked up and played the required beats, on time.
Whether this has been a successful project, only you can judge. Unless you too are unable to perceive noise.
