In a small fishing village located on a remote island, there was an elderly man who loved to stroll along the beach at sunset, leaving his footprints on the golden sand as he contemplated the infinite sea.

One evening, as he walked along the shore, he came across a young boy sitting on a rock, lost in his thoughts.

"What are you doing here all alone?" he asked kindly.

The boy looked up, surprised to be interrupted. "I'm just trying to understand the meaning of life," he replied weakly.

The elderly man smiled and sat down beside him. "The meaning of life is like this ocean we see before us," he said, gesturing towards the vastness of the sea. "Majestic and mysterious. We may not always understand it, but we must accept its flow."

The boy nodded, but still seemed perplexed.

"Look at the waves," the elderly man continued. "They're like the events of life. Some are high and tumultuous, others are gentle and serene. But in the end, they all crash upon the shore, leaving only smooth and uniform sand."

The boy watched the ocean attentively, reflecting on the old fisherman's words.

"Life is made up of moments that leave their mark," he said. "But just like footprints in the sand, they will eventually be erased by the tide of time. No matter how hard we try to leave our mark, in the end, everything will fade away."

The boy felt relieved of an invisible burden as he listened to the wise words of the elderly man. Perhaps there was no need to search for the meaning of life so anxiously. Perhaps all he needed was to learn to accept the flow of time and enjoy the present moment.

That night, as the tide silently rose on the beach, the elderly man and the boy sat together on the rock, watching the sea shimmer in the moonlight. And in that moment, in the quiet of the island, they found the inner peace they had been seeking.

"Inspired by Alessandro Baricco's book 'Oceano Mare' (1993)."

This album is inspired by my local experience communing with nature. As is usual for me lately, these tracks started with field recordings and modular synth was added later. I have been to a local park, McAlpine Creek, hundreds of times. However, I never grow tired of going there due to the variable conditions related to changing seasons.

For anima, the field recording came from walk/hike at McAlpine Creek in early March this year.
Emerging frogs make their presence known throughout this track. For pneuma, the field recording came from in front of my house. The native birds are very active in the morning hours, which is lovely to hear.

I hope I have captured the emotional essence of being in nature. I would absolutely be lost without this brief time away in open space.
