Kaleidoscopic Oceans
Type: Armor Unit
Perception splitting into a tapestry Of shapes and colors we were not meant to see Disorientated, no way to navigate this coiling palace where my brother awaits Finally I gazed upon his new form A shape nearly undiscernable Have you come to join our side? And present your people as prize? Abandoning me should’ve cost you your life Swimming through this impossible sea of space I felt my body unfolding outward as I faced My old ally, now a threat to existence As two we started, and as two we will finish I held the sword in one hand And shielded myself from the blast One instant flash, and the entire plain crashed It folded into itself, and mangled all within it

Revolutions In Saecula tells the story of two freedom fighters, 20.000 years into the future, whose society and star system is threatened by another civilization. In a desperate attempt to dismantle their imminent subjugation, one of the two, Kasa, eventually becomes stranded alone behind enemy lines. Trapped in a world of technofascists who are human in their DNA but act nothing like modern definitions of such, Kasa discovers this is but the first of frightening truths to be revealed about our universe…

This story is told in about 30 minutes through twenty songs, each representing a chapter; the upcoming physical release will have more visual cues to aid in this sonic/nerdy journey through space.

Type: Armor Unit is a new solo offering by Owen Swerts (Days Of Desolation, Dahmer Duck, etc.), aiming to become an audiographic universe with complex world-building and expression through media beyond purely musical ones.
