Program Notes: husk is a study of dissection, classification, and reanimation. The work uses ancient texts on anatomy from Ibn Sina, Aristotle, Cicero, and Francis Bacon as an impetus for examining and defrauding sonic material of its structural identity. Shattered objects are rebuilt from salvage and mobilized for surrogacy.
