Description: "Unraveling the Linear" explores time and moment-to-moment perception through an expanded sonata form that incorporates theme and variations, enriched with electro–acoustic textures. It suggests that time and perception may be illusions – emerging from complex interactions within a timeless space. Through its evolving structure, the piece contemplates how rapidly advancing technologies disrupt conventional narratives and reshape our grasp of reality, presenting a sonic reflection on the potential to move beyond linear frameworks. "Unraveling the Linear" is a Sylvan Winds/New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) commission.
