Muted — Behind the Work, Process, and Evolution of The Concrete Anomaly by Dylan Myers

Notes from the process —
failures, experiments,
and the evolution behind the work.

[ muted ]

I muted the world in order to hear the material.

One morning everything that had once felt stable lost its gravity.
I left everything behind and closed the door.

For over two years I worked until time stopped having structure.
Days collapsed into repetition — testing, failure, adjustment.
Sleep became resistance.

The material demanded duration.
I gave it my life.

Only later did I understand how long I had been gone.
Eight hundred and twenty-four days.
