'Maim ve daf' imagines a falling water drop touching a textured paper. After the first moment where the water drop holds its volumetric body, the absorption process combines both materials quickly. The water disappears within a wrinkled and corrupted paper's surface. The irreversible transformation of both substances materializes sonically in a rallentando of natural harmonics that brings the listener to an acoustic emptiness.
