Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars, stating "The music is more subdued than is usual on a Pullen disc, with the harmonies being less dissonant and the mood often melancholy and reflective but occasionally joyous. This is one of Pullen's more accessible and introspective sessions."[2]

gollark: Stuxnet wasn't done remotely. They chained together a ridiculous number of zero days to attack the computers the centrifuges were physically connected to and the PLCs.
gollark: It might be fun to use it to generate *maximally* right/left-wing text.
gollark: I would assume that would be a fairly easy machine learning classifier thingy, at least if you had enough text of known wingness to train it on.
gollark: I'm sure *someone* will end up buying it anyway.
gollark: They might mean Stellaris? It definitely has options for enslaving species and such.
