Exoplanets or the quest for life around another Sun

With the recent discoveries of exoplanets as a central theme, Benjamin Glorieux created a new piece with the string orchestra Bryggen, Vincent Caers (electronics) and Klaas Verpoest (live video).

The Solitary One

There you are, solitary in the middle of a pitch-black hole. How did you get there, and how could you get out? You’re shouting, screaming, signaling to the outside world, but everything seems to return to you like a boomerang. Nothing can escape the horizon, or does it? Is there something or someone out there who might see or hear your experience inside?
