    Second instalment of Audiomo 2020. A short excerpt from something I'm writing on a deep thinking dove into futures, design, information and understanding, and all the things you need to think about in constructing projects around these things. This excerpt though is essentially texture to the piece, but using Audiomo as an experiment to help refine the words seems that it might be a useful practice. What does your writing sound like when you read it aloud?
