Score / Notes
The title, Mohl ip, is a transliteration of a Korean term, which refers to the purple or pale blue light seen with the eyes closed during the early stages of meditation. While the piece is not intended to be in any way literally programmatic, the physical gestures in the score should be carried out with this in mind. The piece's physical theatre is extremely important, and should be undertaken with the same sort of control normally seen in dance or in martial arts such as tai chi.
Mohl ip is, too, the name of a light installation by James Turrell, on display at Phoenix Art Museum.
