Beginning from a cloud of zero-dimensional points and ending in a 6-dimensional hexeract, players travel through a progression of expanding geometric dimensions in 7 short movements. Each movement has a set of musical parameters. Numbers in the score represent frequency multiples of C (1:1) and may also represent rhythmic durations. Each dimension represents a multiple of a prime number; as the dimensions increase, so does the complexity of the musical scale. Players wander down lines in any direction, exploring the dimensions of each shape, playing a new tone when a new number is encountered.
