An undulating journey into the cosmos, featuring shattering, incessant and metallic soundscapes. Drawn from Mark Kanak’s 2023 book “Lie Detector” as well as 2025’s “Silver” (by Irrflug), much of the material moves in the silver and grey register, where surfaces hint at coherence without actually achieving it; a slow treading to an inevitable end.  The voices of Blixa Bargeld and Jarboe interact in what is almost cold contempt while the piece revolves around questions of falsehoods and truth, what is not really known or can be, and the “epiphany” moment of realizing that in the end, the world wants to deceive and be deceived…and always will be.
