A series of frankly experimental pieces exploring ideas of timbral modification, noise, time-stretching, sound modulation, digital low tech, translation of hand movements into sound, extended just intonation, massive microtonal clusters of very closely spaced electronic waveforms, layering of natural sounds to create a kind of 'granular' synthesis, and psychoacoustic phenomena.
Liner notes include programme notes.
