Program Notes
Writing, according to Italo Calvino, presented him with two branches, “two different drives toward exactitude that will never attain complete fulfillment: 1) The reduction of events to abstract patterns and forms, bodiless rationality, where one may trace lines that converge, projections, abstract forms, vectors of force; 2) The tangible aspect of things presented as precisely as possible; a space crammed with objects and attempts to create a verbal [but also aural] equivalent of that space.” Opus 8 similarly concerns with the opening and closing of these two different types of oneiric doors.
