ABOUT THE TRACK:
Motto for the listener: This music is a like a frozen river, and you must use an axe in order to drink from it.
The track: «Lost Objects, Protocols #2&11» is a part of a larger work in progress called «Protocols of Lost Objects»
It's a musical transposition of my dreams- mirrored against a large amount of contrasting techniques: serial techniques against spectral,
chance operations against deterministic rules. My will, my desire for unscrupulous freedom, constantly fighting against the computer's cold responses. It's blind answers.
The result is a mad dream, with an awful logic in it's entirety, but chaos in it's details. A dream psychoanalyzed by the computer.
