Accompanying description:

">> 𝐈 : (1) The ninth letter of the Latin alphabet as well as the Roman numeral for the number 1. (2) The first-person singular nominative case personal pronoun in Modern English, which is used to refer to one's self and is capitalized –although other pronouns, such as he or she, are not. (3) One of its homophones is "eye"...
>> 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 : (1) Wikipedia: "a stable community of people formed on the basis of a common language, territory, history, ethnicity or culture", (2) Benedict Anderson: an "imagined community", (3) Kurt Vonnegut: a "granfalloon", a "false karass", i.e. a group of people who affect a shared identity or purpose, but whose mutual association is meaningless...
....................................................................................
The music on this album sprang out of my work for the MAGAM project and consists of 3 suites –2 of which have, in earlier stages, been used for a butoh and a dance performance respectively– that cover the distance from aleatoric to improvised to composed music... What I like most about it is its playfulness.

The album title was initially inspired by Kurt Vonnegut's concept of "a nation of two" (in "Mother Night", 1962):
“[...] 𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘢 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 –𝘢 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘸𝘰.”
“𝘖𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘥 –𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘸𝘰. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦, 𝘐 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘢𝘮 𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦, 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯.”
