@Particle Junkie: haha. thanks for the kind words. happy you liked it. sorry about the water drop in your eye... heh... it's slightly tongue in cheek/purposely melodramatic. but yah, I won't take credit for the water. heh.

@Joaquin Mendoza: thank you. :-) what a nice description!
@Collecting Pool: most of the original sound sources were from a metal sculpture (and a couple of other metal things). all were from physical objects. only one is from a non-metal object. a prize goes to who can guess which one. :-) hehheh. (which is probably now an impossible task given that there are now many other amazing sound sources from Mark in there.) :-)
@PandaPuffer: thanks so much. Mark's work on it is STELLAR!
@Simon Dwight: Hi there. I only just realized that I had taken down the original. It's back up now... with a small write up about it. Here: Rust by alex ookpik :-)

@[adj] - Andy D Jackson: :-)
ADORE! Wow Mark, what an amazing collaboration! It's taken on a whole new life of its own. It's so very beautiful, dark, and well, just overall stunning. You truly took the original, maintained the feel of it and expanded it into a whole other level. I'm blown away. SO very nice working with you! Let's do another!
