Sutton, a night shift EMT in Lansing, presents an unflinching facade, her sharp bob and angular face perfectly suited for the job's demands. But in the quiet moments between calls, she's an avid listener of modular synth music—a chaotic tapestry of
electronic beeps, static, and ambient drones. It's her strange way of finding calm, but the line between her music and her work blurs. Sometimes, a beeping from a distant monitor or the static of a
muffed radio call blends seamlessly into the music, and for a fleeting moment, she misses it.
