The Anta Project is a series of recordings made in 2006, by playing the border walls and assorted ephemera found along the U.S./Mexico border near Nogales, Arizona.
The roughly 10 hours of recordings were then blended in a multi-track laptop environment to create a single sonic collage.
This is the full unedited 54+ minute version of The Anta Project released in 2006.
Due to bandwidth issues at the time it was release,The Anta Project was only available as a cd or as a four part download.
Now, for the first time since it was released, The Anta Project has been fully restored to its original glory, and completely remastered as an exclusive download.
In addition, the bonus track Droneland Security, a work built from DMZ field recordings and virtual wall bowings has been included for the first time.
All sales from these downloads go to help fund humanitarian efforts along the border.

Tired of baking in the summer heat? Then we're got just the cooling relief your fevered mind is craving. Thanks to an unprecedented and historic joint collaboration between SonicAnta and The Two Sun Sin Phony Orgestra, for a limited time you are now invited to join The Tucson Electric Fan Appreciation Society (T.E.F.A.S.) Membership includes a T.E.F.A.S. Certificate of Membership suitable for framing, and a copy of Electric Fan Sound Works, a thirty minute odyssey into white noise and beyond. This recording was created by mic-ing and recording an oscillating Honeywell electric fan with a variety of microphones strategically placed to "play-up" the fan's assorted tones, drones and nuances. Those tracks were then processed and mixed into a single work which best represents an immersive electric fan event. It is the hope of The Tucson Electric Fan Appreciation Society (T.E.F.A.S.) that this recording will open the door to your own personal discoveries, observations and enjoyment of the fans swirling around you everyday. So what are you waiting for? And as an added incentive, if you order today, an additional mystery disc will be included at no additional charge. So dim the lights, find a cool comfortable place, ideally between two speakers, breathe deep and enjoy the fan. (Note: This recording is also being issued as part of the SonicAnta D-Construction Series. Subscribers to the series receive the disc and automatic acceptance into the T.E.F.A.S. at no extra charge.)
