The work also offers the viewer a medium that bridges Art and Science. The work examines the nature of harmony, harmony as related to chord structure as well as the harmonics within a pitch. For instance, when the Trinity Drone is activated, the harmonic range of a single note is discovered by lightly touching different parts of the string. The multiple string tuning structures explore consonance with the occasional dissonance. The depth of the work keeps it accessible to all ages and musical and artistic backgrounds.
People play, learn and create together, using the universal language of tone.
