about

"We listen in order to interpret our world and experience meaning.” - Pauline Oliveros, Quantum Listening (2010)

Possible Future : I is a set of compositions that explore humankind's relationship with the natural environment through a sonic lens, and seeks to provide an opportunity for the listener to envision something that would have previously lain beyond the edge of their imagination. The intention of the work is to communicate to people, on an alternative wavelength to the barrage of news articles and doom headlines that we face daily, which are no less important but have their effect weakened by regular exposure, what we as a world are putting at tremendous risk of losing, but for which there is still hope and a reason to save; the natural environment. Across the four pieces, a narrative is told that depicts a potential future for the relationship between humans and the natural word, and is centred around the concept of treating the natural environment as an equal collaborator, as opposed to an aesthetic resource; however, this is not always respected, as is often the case in our contemporary society.

No post-recording effects were used on either the saxophone or drums, with the exception of overdubbing and reverb in From Within The Solution Lies. All distortion and overtones on the saxophone were performed on the solo instrument.

The album art was digitally created by Oskar Jones, using images of the work of artist Caroline Areskog Jones' recent project tonight rain : tomorrow mud, in which Oskar collaborated for a live sonic response at FILET, London. www.carolineareskogjones.com/tonightraintomorrowmud
