Description of A Monument of Chance

Thermal and Seofon met at the first of the Ambient Temple of Imagination's live chill-room performances (later released as "Eleusinia"), with their first collaboration occuring spontaneously before a large audience and lasting six hours. A more formal collaborative project was discussed, but it was only much later, in preparation for the "Planetary House Nation" concert, that the first two studio recordings were made, these becoming the first and second tracks of "A Monument of Chance." After making the live recording--which quite by chance had seen the didjeridoo of Stephen Kent added to the sonic palette of A-TOI--the two returned to the Thermal studio with the raw materials of the show and condensed them into the third track of "Monument." To round out the album, Thermal collaged raw material from the "Eleusinia" performance into a rebuilt version of a performance work by Freezer. "Monument" is the second recorded work in the Archipelago, a conceptual network of individual electronic musician-islands intended to encourage collaboration, cross-pollination, and hybridization.
