about

This is a sort of ''radio play'' of John Berndt's book 'Descriptions of Impossible Objects'.

It was originally produced in quadrophonic sound, in collaboration with Corey Thuro, with the inclusion of a live speaker in a performance.

Worth mentioning that there has been an additional narrative/theatrical jaunt added (I.e. noted ''cutscenes'') that is not contained in the book and which is expanded upon in a live performance,

Unexpectedly, vivid memories and feelings of 90's and early/mid 2000's video games (Half-Life, Myst, Silent Hill, etc.) were strongly felt during the production of this, and made their presence known.

The text is read by Lawrence Herald Worthington.

''This book is not about formal, syntactic definitions of impossibility. Rather, it is about the career of objects, as we believe we identify them in networks of inference, context and causality... a set of fantasies about objects that are not well-behaved...''
