Wakolbingers work depicts the evolution of our universe through the medium of sound. It is based on recordings of microwaves from outer space. Information contained in these waves, for example about the creation of galaxies and the distribution of matter in the universe, has been adjusted to match the speed at which our universe has been expanding. This information was then translated into music. The piece lasts 13.8 minutes, corresponding to the 13.8 billion years from the Big Bang to the present day. The score comprises 1,036 voices.
