Programme Note

In Transit (view from a window) is programmatic only in a very general sense. The ‘viewer’ might be looking back at Earth from a space shuttle, or sitting in an aeroplane or a train looking out from a window seat. Either way, the passenger is caught between a sense of calm within the cabin (the external noise created in transit is either inaudible or considerably muted), and the reality of the speed at which they are travelling.
