Jacob Gotlib: Gravity’s Self-Portrait for Guitar and Electronic Sounds (2009)

from jacob:

“It is often easy and natural for us to live as if we’re at the center of our universe, or the lead actors in a film chronicling our daily lives. From this perspective, it seems that we are stationary objects; that forces events, and people to act upon us, orbit around us.  As i was writing this piece, I was imagining this perspective inverted– what if we are the active bodies, the supporting actors, reacting to and against a giant other force?  The feeling of weight, of gravity pushing upon us, is a familiar one. But what is the gravity feeling as we act upon it?”
