Work Overview
The inspiration for this piece was theories
around what would happen when entering a black hole. Obviously
most likely death, but this is my music interpretation of the
words of Astronomer Kip Thorne (2014, p46) "Black holes are made
from warped space and warped time...Black holes can spin, just as
Earth spins. A spinning black hole drags space around it into a
vortex-type whirling motion". Youtube:
