Coming fourth in the series of nine, "In the heart of the mind" opens the second part of the three main parts (according to the "three-dimensional conceptual analysis of reality"). The first three were all based on Subjective experience - the inner whole, the aesthetic view on the world and spirituality.

The opposite of the Subjective is the Objective - the experience of reality outside of oneself. This begins with looking at the whole of objective reality (subjective-Objective) - the task usually taken up by philosophers. In musical terms, i have chosen to focus here on the searching, reflecting and experimental mode of music-making, exploring the edges, doing away with the regular and the harmonious, even though some of the tracks are tonally based.

This is the birth of the adolescent ("growing") phase, where the mind becomes aware of itself as object, and by that becomes aware of the world as something DISTINCT from one's self. And in that awareness, takes the world apart, to figure out its inner workings.

The musical ear that never allows itself to deconstruct its comfortable habits, is also the ear that grows old too soon. This collection is an effort to revitalize listening, to broaden the scope of sound, without losing touch with the beating of the heart.
