AURORA 23



in June 1993
I received a grant to visit a fly in lake
50 km northeast of Chapleau Ontario

In August I arrived w/a whack of gear
and a rather loose agenda - my mission
to write & record an album of music

It was a blast







recommended listening: volume up, 
good headphones after dark - it's a long-throw 
you'll need to run to catch it

30 year anniversary edition
1993 - 2023




A U R O R A  2 3
volume up/720p
















fast forward

now late September here
that crisp chill in the air and that
familiar reminder that winter is coming


at night
in northern Ontario
something happens in late August,
early September that can't be described
sleeping under it can be dangerous

but life changing
