Fireworks

Alex Robins, 2020 | Composer & Sound Designer

“And we're running.
Sprinting.
Darting toward the light -
- and the sound.“

10th September 2008, 10:28am. The Large Hadron Collider is activated for the first time.

Fireworks is an experimental piece of new writing exploring the dichotomy of whether the connections we make in life form through fate, or are random events in a chaotic universe. Paralleling two narratives in two timelines, this is a story about love, faith and the science behind CERN’s Large Hadron Collider.
