Split Wire explores the theme of a split electrical wire, where the two parts can still coexist but are dangerous when tampered with. These dualities are present in many different forms, including two different divisions of 7/8 time simultaneously, vigorous and placid tempi, and the juxtaposition of 16th notes and triplets.

Live performance in the UNCG Organ Hall.
