About the Album:
Unlike traditional musical composition methods in which paper is used for writing scores, the artist has chosen to use paper as an instrument for his album. One piece in this album consists of fourteen movements. To create the microsound and electronic versions of specific sounds, Balighi has incorporated several algorithms for development, including the use of Max MSP programming language, and Logic Pro as the DAW for editing the sounds. He has used synthesizers in certain pieces to create a profound atmosphere.
