Terminal Habitat Collapse sonically narrates the anthropocene. From bucolic beginnings to a poisoned present and into a disparate future of engineered survival, the three-act composition presents an immersive soundscape of ecological change. Performed in quadraphonic sound, each act represents an epoch of this story, an entropic journey from melody to mechanical rhythms driving into a startling finale. The piece seeks to activate a collective psycho-somatic response to the complete collapse of human habitat by renovating the aesthetic framework of pastoralism and escalating the rhetoric of ecological change.
