Protected forest, intimate, quiet. 
The wind, the bugs and the occasional bird.
Suddenly, the atmosphere changes. The forest is disturbed. 
Increasingly exposed, a lament of anguish and urgency as the trees are falling.

“Si un árbol cae en un bosque y nadie está cerca para oírlo, ¿hace algún sonido?
“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
– George Berkeley
