"See CLICK PIECE "

Using only clicks (the shortest sounds we can make) each individual in the group tries to locate a space (silence) in which to place their click (dot). Because of the group activity, the silences are minute and pass by rapidly, so by the time you have heard a space, and attempted to put a dot in it, that space may have vanished.

Begin from the group's silence. The aim is to find a space (silence) in which to place your dot (click). The first person to get in with a dot has succeeded in using the first available silence. From then on everyone is seeking an available gap in which to place their dot. This produces a particularly colourful and dynamic interaction.

It is as if there was a blank canvas which you must try to cover with small dots (as with an abstract pointillist painting), while the rest of the group are rapidly filling up the canvas by trying to do the same thing. The music, unlike a canvas, is dynamic and constantly changes as the clicks move past. A closer analogy could be a group of people standing on a bridge above a river, trying to cover the surface of the moving water by catapulting paper darts onto it. It is impossible to take up all the space when only using short clicks, so if problems have arisen while playing 'Silence' because a minority of people are using all the space, this piece can be useful in tackling the problem.
