Where most microtonal music starts with the construction of a novel but fixed scale,  this music finds all its pitches "on the fly."  (MIDI piano makes this possible.)  Despite a density of diverse pitches extreme even compared with complex atonal music, a  ghostly, and yet oddly familiar, sense of root progression emerges here, and propels the music through time.   

Rhythmically, the initial relentless pulse gradually gives way to angular syncopations, but based on the golden ratio and quite impossible to notate in conventional meters.  Despite a fixed "tempo," the music seems to accelerate:   the twisted rhythms draw on a gamut of just three durations, but the mix of these three changes from beginning to end for a spectrum of feeling that gives the work shape and direction.
