A space opera combining exotic physical phenomena with laser-projected sets and algorithmic poetry.

Three women physicists float on the surface of a lake buried a kilometre underground — the site of a cavernous neutrino detector.  While repairing one of the sensors, their boat flips over, hurling the heroines into the water aglow with neutrino-induced radiation.

Arriving from a supernova 4 billion light years away, the neutrinos penetrate the lake and start blazing faster than the speed of light.  This creates shimmering cones of Cherenkov radiation (the optical equivalent of a sonic boom) enveloping the submerged researchers. Descending together to the bottom of the lake in a state of telepathic euphoria, they discover why the universe is not symmetrical.

With Evelina Domnitch / Dmitry Gelfand (light artists and creators), Christian Bok (poetry), Jasna Velickovic (magnetic fields and sound), Stephanie Pan (voice and gravity), Milana Zaric and Richard Barrett (sound), Richard Chartier (sound), Alberto Novello (laser and sound).
