The inspiration for `Rise from Slumber' came from a desire to move away from episodic structure. The piece consists of a system whose elements are reactive to one another. At times certain elements come to the fore before collapsing back into the system. The title reflects the gentle rising and falling nature of the material.

Rise From Slumber was realized in at the University of Sheffield Sound Studios in 2011 as part of an MA in Sonic Arts. It has has performed at the Queen's University of Belfast's Sonorities festival and also at Staffordshire University's NoiseFloor festival both in 2013.
