Fractals (from latim fractus) = "broken" or "fractured"
A fractal is "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be subdivided into parts, each of which is a reduced size copy of the whole". Because they appear similar to all levels of magnification, fractals are often considered to be infinitely complex.
Lumina ́s Sound = Fractals
The “free-style sound” of Lumina, although at the first moment it sounds like “broken” or “fragmented” without any structure, it shows us an unexpected “organic” structure after many auditions. That ́s why they choose “Fractals” as the main symbol of Lumina.
Lumina in quartet formation, with the great addition of Vítor Alcântara on soprano sax.
This album is composed by 5 tracks. The first one is here and others will come shortly. Enjoy it!
