in portland they call it the aerial tram instead of a cable car, and they call the trams trains. whatever, it makes a pleasant ride with the best views of the city and the mountains - mount st helens to the northeast, mount hood to the east.

tim tried to record the machinery sounds, but people were talking, so he went into the escape stair to make some noises with the handrails and pipes.

at home that evening he began to play with the recordings, adding beats and changing the voices - maybe a new piece of music will result.
