Projector Hum
Movies for your ears. Each episode of Projector Hum is a new short film without pictures: one ordinary place, one thing that could never happen, and the people who have to live with it. Funny, strange, sometimes devastating, built from dense sound so you can see it with your eyes closed. Best on headphones. A work of fiction. Performed by synthetic voices.
