Aaron Ximm/Quiet American (California, US) travels and records extensively in Asia, creates radio and web-based sound art, and hosts monthly Field Effects concerts in San Francisco. This is an online bonus track to Vox Americana, one of the CD-Rs that he produced after travels in Vietnam. It's composed of the bells of water buffalo herded by, the cluck of a diesel engine in a rock quarry in the distance, and a snippet of conversation between Ximm's wife and a passing Hmong saleswoman.
