Shekasteh Mouyeh was a project examining the confrontation of Persian musical modes with electroacoustic music material and techniques, and the problematisation of the results along with objects of video art and visual effects — creating a set of compositions that would exhibit novelty — and, the assemblage of them for and through a live performance utilizing improvisational methods as an attempt to expand timbral possibilities in a contextual relationship with Western contemporary classical music.
