About
I was once inspired to write a piece by a line in a poem that said something about how a river takes things along, leaves them at the riverside and take them along again. That piece never really worked, but I later reworked parts of that to this solo piece. Here is a base material that builds up and down, out and in, like a river reworking the material while carrying it.
The title (Norwegian) is a nonsense word, but derived from the Norwegian version of erosion.
