Down, down, down she went. Could not stop herself falling…
This audio collage is constructed from 20 versions of the ‘well scene’ in audiobooks of Alice in Wonderland. It is not about Alice, but is an exploration of falling and feelings in sound.

Dispatch by decapitation:
A heavy-spined knife
to sever her neck,
slit open her belly, belly.
Remove the guts quickly
and set aside her head,
fins swimming back to the sea;
mouth gasping, gasping.
