Angels Set in Motion (2024-2025)

The three-dimensional shrinky dink headdress for Conrad Praetzel’s Angels Set in Motion album was conceived, conjured and created by responding to the reverberations, rhythms and wind-inspired imagery — wind chimes, kites, windsocks, pinwheels, turbines, tumbleweeds, clothes drying on laundry lines, pulsating weather patterns — heard in early- and mid-project mixes of the music during multiple intense listening sessions leading up to the final mixdown.
