“If you want to understand the Universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” Nikola Tesla

This work is about the marriage of two universal creative principles expressed through sound: the harmonic series, and the growth series more commonly known as the Fibonacci series. Their point of intersection is a fascinating one, both mathematically and musically. The harmonic series is perhaps more familiar to lovers of music but the way in which the Fibonacci series interacts with the overtones reveals much more to the listener regarding the nature of self-similarity, organic growth, inter-dimensional relationship and micro-macrocosm similarity. The Fibonacci series gradually approaches the irrational number phi (1.618…), more commonly known as the Golden Section. Some musicians have attempted to use the Golden Section by dividing their works accordingly along the time axis; in this work this proportion is approached on the vertical harmonic axis, which occurs in realtime.
