  <description>"I Am Sitting in A Room" is a psycho-acoustic classic by Alvin Lucier for voice and tape. The phrases describing the action are recorded, then played into a room and re-recorded. And that goes on over and over again.&#13;
&#13;
Collage artist Residuum takes the text by Lucier and let the computer speak it. And as a computer can only speak virtually, the technique is applied to virtual space, i.e. a plugin, that simulates the echoes of real space. Over and over again, 59 times, to be precise. And it ends in Ambient music.&#13;
&#13;
Somehow, there is a problem with archive.org recognizing some of the VBR mp3 and converting them into lo-fi mp3 and ogg vorbis. Unfortunately, Those files are not included in the zip file.&#13;
