There is a connection between the surface of our skin and the water within cells in our bodies, and it is vibrating.  “Recognition” (for prepared piano, sine waves, and Macro-Cymatic Instrument), invites you to immerse in the intricate dance of music and visual motion.   In black in white, the gesture of the light on water turns reminiscent of pen and ink, the animation of our vibrational states by an imaginary hand.
