When two black holes collide, collapsing into one another, they create a highly deformed new black hole that emits gravitational waves from its equator. This gravitational wave moves up and down in frequency a few times before it dies, creating “chirps.” This composition imagines a sound world filled with chirps that disrupt our temporal expectations. These disruptions result in rapid transformations between allusions to acoustic instruments, sonic environments, and percussive noises that are animated and playful.
