SANCTUARY MOON
The Moon, somewhere so inhospitable and barren, may one day be humanity's sanctuary: a place where we will build our home with every molecule of subsistence arising from our Moon's paltry bounty and humankind's dreams, ingenuity, and desperation.

TICKET TO TOMORROW
The Quad Toms set the stage for the intricate and fast-paced interchange, illustrating the sense of being pulled through time at an uncontrollable pace. On the precipice between today and tomorrow, the repeated notes in the strings create the illusion of timelessness, the accents like stars in the night sky. The thematic material returns, as does the next day, repeating the inescapable cycle.
Ticket to Tomorrow embodies time’s relentless pull from minute to minute and second to second until the future becomes the now, only to slip away from awareness into the past as the day repeats, greeted with despair or joy.
