"Surface Tension" is an analogy realized by Ken Ehlrich, Bradon LaBelle and Stehpen Vitello. Those different sound works includes themselves in a consideration on the very spot of the creation. Searching for interrelations with the place, the way it takes over and answers to the sound creation. The place becomes successively city or body. Between outside and inside, organic and non organic.
