decoherence). In addition to these two theories, there is the fluidity of time
and the principle of quantum entanglement. The Entanglement performance is inspired by the same theories; an

Near rural Montalegre, an entire mountain may be
destroyed to facilitate a proposed lithium mine. Situated only a few kilometers
from the Rabagao drinking water reservoir, are the villages of Carvalhais and
Rebordelo with the mountain between them. While on one hand, initiatives are
painted green, but with extraction of any kind, there are irreversible impacts
on the landscape, culture and people to be considered.Borders are edges, divisions that separate two
distinct zones: be they political, geographical, historical, social, cultural,
geological, tectonic…They can be natural or manufactured, progressive or
abrupt, actual or perceived, physically visible or drawn on a map, imaginary or
real. Through the use of aerial and land based photogrammetry as a means to
visualize and sonify both real and perceived environmental limits provides a
metaphor for a systemic shift and a point of reflection of our relationship
with environmental extraction. Speaking to the potential ecologically
