Turbulence
Chapter: VIII
The Record
Turbulence belongs to the Motion pathway and explores what happens when you're moving constantly but still don't really know where you're going.
The session grew out of a period of travel, long journeys and the strange gaps in between where there is nothing left to do but sit with your own thoughts. The music begins restless and unsettled, moving through different rhythms and textures before gradually becoming more open and purposeful, reflecting the feeling of moving forward without necessarily knowing the destination.
There is no neat resolution here. Sometimes you don't get certainty, instead you just keep moving, trusting that eventually you'll arrive somewhere you need to be.
The Journal
The accompanying Journal holds the personal story behind that feeling; the period in my life that gave the Chapter its reason to exist. This is a chapter about movement, uncertainty, and the strange amount of space travelling can create for thoughts you normally manage to keep busy. It is about not really knowing where you're going, and finding some comfort in the fact that you are still moving.
