In an experimental promenade, Finnish musicians Kimmo Pohjonen and Juuso Hannukainen manipulate the musical atom to collide with the Proton String Quartet on Mount Fortress. Having accepted a request from the famous Kronos Quartet to create the intense Uniko, the Scandinavians set the gears in motion again to repeat this operation under an open sky. More light, new accordion and voice samples, plus loops, rhythms and various effects, will leave Proton at the mercy of an audiovisual storm unprecedented in the history of Macao.

Duration: approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes, no interval
