Alma Hunter is a visiting behavioral ecologist from the Cognition and culture in New Caledonian crows research group. Due to life's exigencies she has a grant to study the corvid population in Detroit. Her praxis is all mixed in with exigencies and her field of study.
Alma has found all the sticks and stones. She's collected the voices: the first static of dispatch code transmissions, the words of grandmothers, the shouts of children, the huff of machismo. the buzzing of light. She's settled at the intersection where the swirling of leaves is keeping up with the windup of the sound from a streetlamp that is warming up. It could be the seven of swords she draws that decides her: She'll stay here for a little longer.
