AURAL FRAGMENT
Third and last part of the Aural Fragment trilogy
Landscapes Part III
The future?
Year 2013.
Aural Fragment’s journey ends with a question about the future.
The essential characteristic of the third part is the optimism that man will stand up and survive
from the problems he has caused through time’s crossing and person’s progress.
Ecological disasters, worldwide recession, immorality and chaos in human contact are some
of the most serious issues we have to face.
Year 2013.
A message for the future?

1) Direct in your soul
2) Times
3) Mind odyssey
4) Astral projection

The journey continues….

3) Escape of memories.
4) Aurora Borealis.
