Distant Spaces is an electroacoustic composition inspired by a year-long COVID-19 lockdown when the only possibility to venture out was to close my eyes and imagine distant, surreal worlds far away from the Earth. The composition catalogues one such a trip where I met both friends and strangers while respecting the mutual both physical and spiritual distance.
