"As I lived near Detroit and grew up in Windsor, I was drawn to a field recording of the People Mover (a 13-station elevated transportation railway system in downtown Detroit). This railway was built by a Canadian company and opened to the public in 1987.

"In my submitted composition, I was drawn to the musical sounds used to indicate the stops along the line. I wanted to elevate these sounds as punctuations over the existing mechanical sounds of the tracks and breaking sounds of the train. I also wanted to emphasize the acceleration and deceleration in terms of movement."
