Cameron and Hannah's collaboration explores repetition and the breakdown of structure: in visual and auditory imagery, and through the effects of natural forces and the elements. The musicians begin by playing written notes and gradually transition to the graphic notation of drawings. Over time the steadiness of the written notes is colonized by the dissemination of repetitive marks and improvisation.
