Note:
As a means of coping with the inherent instability of all systems surrounding us, I have been looking for natural phenomena that are characterized by a constant state of imbalance. Each of the three movements of the piece is inspired by such a phenomenon: the first movement "Primordial Fluctuations" refers to variations in the density of the material during the early forming of the universe. The second movement is titled "Liquid Fragility", a term used to quantify the elasticity of glass during its melting process. The third movement "Colony Collapse" is inspired by a phenomenon observed in bee hives, where the majority of worker bees in a bee colony disappear, leaving the queen by herself.
