Most of the linguistic connections to vista focus on light, and this piece explores the opposite, continuing the same camera angle as the previous day.  A quick improvisation taking advantage of the background noise in my apartment.  I have a new mysterious British neighbour, and ever evening he speaks on the phone in our building's stairwell.  Yet I've never managed to actually see him, only heard his voice amplified by the shape of the stairwell.  Perhaps he is a phantom?
