‘And Suddenly an Engine Started’ talks about the cycle of life, from its beginning to its end. The project has its roots in the idea of the original oscillation, a research through our deeper selves, of
our original big bang (our first noise).It interrogates our collective memory, as a society and as an individual. It talks about the mystical connection (without touching on religion), of what unites us when we’re together as human beings in a space focused on the same matter: listening.
