Programme Notes
An AI roller-skater glides through cities, both ancient and modern
Making acrobatic swerves, revealing new panoramas
New constellations: etched in rhythmical code
Kaleidoscopic twists open up vistas: revelations of zeros and ones
Manifest as deep, funky rhythms: Earth’s chthonic ode
Light-language held in stone like insects in amber
Now released in flamboyant flashes and flashbacks
A ritual of percussion; the world’s oldest instrument
A choreography of vibration: etched onto air...
Perma-frost to Perma-joy
