From the composer:
"Ferrofluid is a mysterious and fascinating colloidal liquid made of nanoscale ferromagnetic particles, originally developed by NASA as a way to draw rocket fuel into a pump in a weightless environment. When exposed to a strong magnet, a pool of ferrofluid will form itself into a gravity-defying mound of characteristic uniform spikes. feral / fluid was inspired by the extra-terrestrial appearance and behavior of this interesting substance and by the steady hum created by the sort of electromagnets that might bring ferrofluid to life.As this project is also closely tied to the feminine in that the two women who commissioned the work sought to bring female voices to the bass clarinet duo genre in terms of performers and repertoire, this piece is also an expression of femininity. The title is tied to this portrayal of the feminine in addition to being a play on words about ferrofluid."
