The Magnetosphere is an outer magnetic field protecting the Earth from solar wind and cosmic radiation. Vocal whispers flow like an aurora borealis, coruscating in emotional tones and rhythms throughout a vast horizon of infinite sky, offerings to what lies below. The haunting vocals and drum work of renowned Korean traditional musician Dong-Won Kim are shimmering vespers in this otherworldly realm.
