1st release by 0/r, the collaborative project of Richard Chartier and Japanese artist Nosei Sakata (*0). Packaged in die cut perforated sealed sleeve with insert. 0/r is Nosei Sakata (*0) and Richard Chartier. The collaboration was realized in mid 1999 entirely through the mail between the US and Japan. Raw tones and sounds on minidisc were sent to chartier and returned to *0 with new sounds and tracks made from *0's original sounds. This back and forth continued several times, the track titles indicating this process. the cd also includes two tracks "r" and "0" which are original solo works by each artist inspired by the collaboration.
