the use of physical string interests me in the way that it manifests the total interconnectedness of all things existing:
- as the synapses between bodies
- like lines of transmission
- nondetachable connections, leaving traces//impressions on the bodies they connect
- Chaos theory//the Butterfly effect – chaos and cosmos
- Process

i am composing a number of pieces currently which will utilise ‘string’ in various different ways during performance (and perhaps even during the compositional process, thought that idea has only emerged in my head since writing the last sentence…)
