i initially recorded bits from a documentary i was watching late one night, 

this became the spoken intro. 

i  then added on to this recording by recording a randomly selected track, from a soundscape cd i bought the other day for a dollar.  i recorded this through my boombox creating a  camcorder cult propaganda commercial sound.

 using a delay with the feedback knob maxed out, i produced feedback and plucked a few notes on the guitar. i also took advantage of the electrical issue this guitar is having, this created the buzzing you hear at certain points. 

The radio static and talk show excerpt you hear looped at the end was discovered and "mixed "live using my boombox. the looping at the end was not done live.    

   

the combination of these things created a sort of atmosphere similar to the one seen in Davids photo.
