001 lipostudio (and so on...)
Liposuction surgery recorded in California utilizing Bard Parker Scalpels, Draeger Anesthesia Ventilators and Gramm's Medical Liposuction Equipment.
002 l. a. s. i. k.
Refractive eye surgery (laser in situ keratomileusis) performed on Monica Youn and recorded in San Francisco.
003 spondee
Audiologist Rebecca Highlander, CCC-A reads a list of phonetically balanced words. Recorded in the hearing test booth at the Jean Weingarden Peninsula Oral School for the Deaf. Beeps and tones generated during the response curve testing of hearing aids.
004 ur tchun tan tse qi
Composed entirely from sounds generated while measuring the galvanic response of Martin's skin to a constant flow of electricity. Changes in pitch are produced as the detector pin moves closer to acupuncture points. Detector courtesy of Joseph Chang/The House of Qi.
005 for felix (and all the rats)
Composed entirely from the plucked and bowed cage of our rat Felix (R. I. P.). Sadness in the loss of our pet is put in perspective by the fact that a laboratory animal dies every second in the United States.
006 memento mom
Composed entirely from samples of human skull, goat spine and connective tissue, and artificial teeth.
007 california rhinoplasty
With the exception of the nose flute, this is composed entirely from recordings of plastic surgeries performed in California: rhinoplasty, endoscopic forehead lift, chin implant. Confidentiality prohibits disclosure of patient/physician identities.

Release includes CD-sized insert.
