Augustwolf’s “Visual Music” has us seeing stars.

We emerge from a gaping hole in the atmosphere, barreling through the layers that lead us swiftly through a sea of concentrated grimy clouds, so full of water that they look sure to burst onto the uneven dead grass that lays below. From our tail, a thick multi-layered kaleidoscope of vibrant scorching flames as they collect magnesium and lithium from the deteriorating ozone to carry … Continue reading Augustwolf’s “Visual Music” has us seeing stars.
