'Aphotic Signals' is an A/V hymn to what experience leaves in the lightless subsoil of trauma. Composed as the oration of an avatar ultimately alienated from its environment as it finds itself in the primordial cave at the twilight of time. In this sense, 'Aphotic Signals' is a reanimistic and techgnostic treatise on the evolution of matter. The aphotic zone is that anomalous zone in a body of water that refuses to be illuminated by the sun, an opening in the world onto the unknown and perhaps unknowable, invisible to any sensor yet underlying any current that moves upon the surface. An( )organic commune not through given intelligibility but its loss.
