There was a smaller cadre of Homeostasisists this time out, but still plenty of unrushed driftage following the dictates of the Cosmic Homeostasis Tactical Memo. The Primary Drifters here were Paul Newman (sax, Namer-of-Things), Rob Cruickshank (electronics) and Joe Strutt (keyb/loops). A couple audience members (Dirty Inputs' Aaron Dawson and Johan Seaton) were pressganged into the proceedings on phone apps and electroacoustic bricabrac, which you can hear more of in the second selection here, including some of Dawson's tinkling wine glass chimes, which inspired the piece's title.

[Cosmic Homeostasis will return. In the meantime, Joe Strutt (in the guise of Heraclitus Akimbo) will be joined by Paul Newman at one of Ratio's "Decreation" celebrations this Sunday night.]
