Cucarachas Empire of Dreams Podcast

Artist Guillermo Galindo was born in Mexico but has lived in the U.S. for many years. For 4 years he collected items left behind by migrants in the desert near the U.S.-Mexican border for a project called Border Cantos. He crafts musical instruments from these objects that he finds and plays them.

Here, he describes one of his compositions, "Cucarachas."
