GPC is a piece written for an ensemble with a flexible setting. Any instrument in any amount can participate.

 

Inspired by the navigation system GPS, GPC, standing for Global Positioning Chaos, the piece starts with all the musicians being together. They have all the same destination but will have to navigate individually through the score, resembling a map. As the piece progresses, they have the choice of choosing different paths to reach their destination, with every choice lasting different durations. Everybody takes different paths, ending up some musicians arriving at the destination early and others late.
