This is an improvisational work, inspired by Jerome Cooper's solo percussion piece "The Unpredictability of Predictability".  Here this take is realized on a small modular synthesizer, offering me a wide range of patching possibilities while utilizing one a single sound source, i this case a resonator.  Complex modulation patching allows the performer to make subtle adjustments that alter the rhythmic and tonal output.
