The Secret Life of Oodle-Oodle

Technical Issues:
The piece consists mainly of short repeated fragments, with semi-quaver motifs bouncing from one instrument to another, a slower moving central passage, and then more fast repeated material. It involves rhythmic key clicking.
Programme note:
"Search within the shell of a machine undertaking repetitive tasks and perhaps you'll find something unpredictable, illogical, emotional."
