Drifters is an attempt to find ways for both language and place to drift: different representations of language drift among each other - from stories in fragments to phrases to phonemes, from real stories to re-creations and back. These languages also drift among different sonic locations, which also drift among themselves - from a dripping cavern to an airport to the ocean. Eavesdropping, or the comments on eavesdropping, become the linchpins for the various sections, eavesdropping being a surreptitious drifting in and out of someone else's narrative space, as their sounds drift in and out of the eavesdropper's acoustic space.
