Audio Flux is a home for short-form, innovative audio. They invite people far and wide to create short “fluxworks” in response to a theme and set of prompts.

For Circuit 08, each fluxwork needed to:

  • Respond to the theme “Confection”

  • Last three minutes on the dot

  • Include a conversation with someone who you don’t know yet, and who lives or works within one mile (or kilometer) of where you live or work.

  • Mention chocolate or another sweet treat.

  • Incorporate an audible sonic fluctuation inspired by the chocolate-tempering process of repeated heating and cooling. (See video ) This fluctuation may be conveyed through volume, pacing, tone, language… or something else entirely.
