We orbit earth’s watered realm, guided by the stars above. Time’s circle governs us, connecting all in a fleeting dance. Each of us a part of this symphony, intertwined within the boudless circle of existence.
As the conductor, I guided the performers in activating the sound in a counter-wise direction. The sequence of the performance reflects the history of the Earth, starting from the progress through the stage of glaciation, the existence of land animals, the emergence of humans, the development of modern science, and finally returning to the beginning when earth was but a watery orb adorned by the stars.
The piece also functions as a sonic installation that welcomes everyone to explore.
