The piece looks at the idea of human identity as a constantly proliferating multitude, an (in)balance of different elements pushing and pulling a person in different directions. The performer plays solo and yet speaks in an internal monologue while fantasies of the single line’s multiplication and modification dance unpredictably around the installation. The three elements morph, shape and transform each other in creating the fundamental flux and drama of a constituted subject, reflected publicly in the spatial orientation of the sound, originally for an 18-channel presentation on special "sound-dice” speakers and presented here in a stereo mix.
