In Finnish language Alkeis is not exactly a full word, but functions more like a prefix, meaning rudimentary or primitive. It communicates well the habitus of the crude oscillations that are inspected here: the smallest possible, single-cell organism devoid of thought, driven by instinct.

Liskoaivo is a finnish word for "lizard brain", the region of the brain that regulates our primitive reactions.
As sophisticated as oscillators and modular synthesis might be, at the core lies an unexplainable urge to get away from unease, even though it might be totally unconscious: we arrive at an uncharted and mysterious point of sonic landscapes that remind us of primordial states we forgot to remember.
