This concert focuses upon the aesthetic Asymmetry; meaning avoiding uniformity and working with the irregular and incomplete.

"Uniformity of design was considered fatal to the freshness of imagination." - Kakuzō Okakuro

“In everything, no matter what it may be, uniformity is undesirable. Leaving something incomplete makes it interesting, and gives one the feeling that there is room for growth.” - Yoshida Kenkō
