This track-the second official release from IKA, the creative unit formed by TOMC, wheelchair dancer Kenta Kambara, and human-augmentation researcher Ryoichi Ando-was composed with the theme of exploring physical diversity.

Blending sleek synthesizers, gospel-inspired choral textures, and voices with a folkloric timbre, it unfolds as an intelligent, futuristic dance piece-like stepping into the world of science fiction. The music takes "gaze and self" as its central theme, channeling the tension, thrill, and dramatic qualities that arise from the relationship between the individual and their surrounding environment.
