The "Songlines" are ancient paths crossing the Australian landscape. The landscape in this case is then a long set of texts ranging from Inuit myths to Edgar A. Poe.

Illusions II in desolate fields for Upic

Description: Recording of Takehito Shimazu's Illusions II in desolate fields for Upic. The inspiration for this piece is from a short poem (translated in English) sung by a poet from 200 years ago.
