By week two, he wasn’t sleeping. He was deep in the sampling mode, recording rain on his fire escape, the hum of the subway, his own ragged breath. The Triton took these mundane sounds and stretched them into alien textures. He’d twist the Value dial and the whole room would smell like ozone and burnt coffee.
