Shards
The album's conceptual framework centers on fragmentation and reconstruction. As the liner notes observe, "the piano and drums fold into each other and themselves, looping back and forth between sound, data, past, future-information moving at the lightning speed of musicians' minds." Each musical gesture by these musicians leaves a mark in three virtual dimensions, shaping an infinite number of images as the record plays.
