Slippery Geometry, as a whole, has a language—but each series has its own expression or dialect. Sometimes, often with the first of a new series, I am overtly trying to expand the vocabulary, or at least grasp how this new material fits into it. Other times, like here, I feel like the piece is trying expand the vocabulary and I’m just trying to understand how. I don’t always meet those demands but the effort is an interesting exercise unto itself.
