The performance invites contemplation of the wonder and enormity of the cosmos and attempts to highlight the connections between art and science. \nFor some in the audience it can be a meditation\, for others an active listening and perceptual experience. This event invites listeners to sink and settle into an evolving musical and visual journey. \nThe music\, conceived and performed by Tom Luther\, is inspired and informed by the changes in the Earth’s orbit from a single year to the large scale 100\,000 year cycle. While falling into the general category of “Ambient” or “Space” music\, Luther has drawn on his experience as an improviser\, composer\, and pianist to extend at the conventions of the genre. \nThis year’s program is focused on the idea of the slow change of polar orientation caused by the tilt of the earth and the effect on its orbit. Luther explores offset patterns of rhythm and shifting melodies to reflect the slow change of direction.
