Audio Flux invites anyone and everyone to create short audio works within a set parameters. For Circuit 04: Firsts, we teamed up with writer Jason Reynolds to design prompts inspired by his new book, “Twenty-Four Seconds From Now.”
Each fluxwork had to:
- Run exactly three minutes
- Reference an object related to a “FIRST” (yours or someone else’s)
- Include the sound of time passing (forwards or backwards, no clocks please)
- Be accompanied by a handwritten document (i.e. outline, title page, transcript, or something else entirely, provided digitally)

Who is this program for?
