...Isn't it fascinanting how life on Earth is organized. With the perfect process of Evolution, organisms live, die and constantly evolve.
From the simplest ancient organism that are living on Earth for more than a billion years, to plant life and animals that we see everyday, Evolution is constantly morphing living beings, creating new life forms and adapting them to the current enviroment.
But the interesting question is, what is the next step? And how to present it through music?
How do Evolution work in 21.century?
If we can say that humans as a species are parents, then who is child of humanity? By all means it is Technology, which is Evolving in the same manner as everything else is. This is a new Theory, but I can see it is strong one, because really ... who is using old technology ... nobody, why would someone use old cell phones when we have modern smart phones ...?
My piece, Evoluiton is musically exploring five different Kingdoms of life (monera, protista, fungae, plantae, animalia) with added newest one (and kinda a controversial one) called Technium ... and with a question left in the air ... what is the next step in Evolution ...

Title: identification changeability stagnation

performed by: pre-art soloists (Switzerland)

This composition is inspired with human behaviour and modern social problems. In this case, identification is connected with conscious or unconscious behaviours or states of mind such as: materialism, hypersensibility/impulsivity, classical conditioning and addiction. Changeability, as something much desirable in modern society, is represented through next traits: creativity, empathy, individuality and self-actualization. Stagnation, as the worst state of human existence, is represented through conformism-hedonism, greed, depression(indifference) and fear and anxiety. The main specificity of this piece is in its formal structure, which is derived from the listed traits. Every trait is described with unique motives, which are processed in time frame of thirty seconds. That kind of fast motivic and thematic exchange, gives this piece a constant flow and a fast structural transformation.
