Concentric Paths, subtitle of the concerto for violin and chamber orchestra, refers to outliers who remain peripheral to actors having a common center. There is harmonious dance within the circle until an outlier intrudes, creating conflict among the men with regard to the women. The lighting is coded for mood: red for strong emotions, yellow for tranquil, grey for somber. The grouping of dancers in three movements reflects the triadic nature of the score.

gollark: Okay, hmm, correction, you are *not*, good.
gollark: You're modelling the urine as if it has 0 velocity and just magically appears at a point then accelerates downward, in which case... it obviously can't go anywhere but right below where it appears.
gollark: This does not seem remotely accurate.
