Loosely based on three of the major experiments at CERN, this twelve-minute piece for flute, oboe, and clarinet was commissioned by the Vuorovesi Trio (Diane Boyd Schultz, Mary Lindsey Bailey, and Osiris J. Molina) and written at the Visby International Centre for Composers in Sweden.  It is also available for saxophone quartet.
