Brief Description of the piece: Sea Songs is a trilogy of 3 minute works using the ocean as a metaphor for the forces that can erode our perception of self. The three pieces, "Taiko -Salute the Sunset", "Lapping at my Edges" and "Siren" indicate an increasing level of immersion, until finally the disembodied psyche floats away from the corporeal body.
