Icebergs off the coast of East 8th and Fraser

This work is inspired by snapshots of the gutters near my home after the late snowfall in March of 2017. The audio is from samples recorded in my kitchen processed with a custom granular patch made in Max7. The visual is pixel sorting algorithms applied to the orginal snapshot.
