Textbook Feedback (2002): Textbook Feedback is based on the use of 

feedback loops in mechanical engineering. The sound sources are audio

feedback along with a mechanical engineer reading from a text book 

about using feedback for the control of systems. During the course of 

the piece, the engineer's words are never discernable to the listener,

the same way that an engineer's tests and calculations are never 

presented to the user in the final product. This piece is about 

habitually overlooking the process of construction and focusing only 

on the final product.
