ABOUT “KRONOS MAKES SOUNDS WITH STUFF”

“A few days after the shelter-in-place order began in San Francisco,” writes Clay, “Kronos reached out for a simple, fun creative project that could be done from home. I asked them to go on a scavenger hunt around their houses to find different types of sounds, and then I built a short video collage from the noises they discovered. Special guest appearances from Olivier, Cowboy, Jasmine, and Beethoven.”
