program notes:
"this eruption undoes stagnation / you didn't know i had it in me"
{ this piece is meant to recreate that distinct sensation }
Eldfjallsvið roughly translated to "volcanic field" or "volcanic stage" is an attempt at recreating the harsh Icelandic landscape and the volcanic activity bubbling beneath a seemingly calm shell of rock and soil.
