Program note:
The original idea of composing this piece was exactly opposite to what it finally appears. I was thinking about creating a funny and humorous piece with lots of surprising sounds. However, the music itself led me to a totally different direction--an abandoned world of madness.
While watching the 2003 version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I was probably the one who screamed the most in the theatre. After this experience, I refuse to watch almost every horror movie. This piece is not about the movie, but that terrifying experience, without any doubt, contributed in composing this piece.
