Abstract
Fault Lines is a musical composition written for the traditional wind band and
electronics created as an artistic expression of disruptive elements invoking change. The composition aims to draw connections between the geological tectonic stress and rebalancing process and the human experience of stress, disruption, and rebalancing. The composition allows an opportunity for an electronic performer’s artistic variation from performance to performance based on the choices of sounds relevant to the performer.
