Flocking
This piece revolves around mimicking the motions of birds in a flock – individual variations moving together towards the same direction. While there’s a beginning and end to the piece, everything cycles back on itself much like birds migrating and returning home. The paths of the flock as a whole remain largely the same, but the movement of each individual varies slightly each time.
