about

Release concert May 28, 2022, at Constellation in Chicago.

In Flux is a series of pulsating, largely improvised pieces written for piano, synthesizer and drum. The music circles the effects of a family member's borderline personality disorder and the pain of a chronic injury as they coexist through periods of agony and relief.


The complete TRILOGY is available on CD at scriptsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/akosuen-trilogy
