Music.
Music.
Everywhere, but not a song to seek
And then, from the silence comes a thunderous rumble.
Electricity released!
Charging. Powering. Tuning.
Tiny circuits, microchips and processors,
Compacted, firmly - held in hand.
Connecting to the world on a global scale.
Seeking the journey into the mysterious unexplored.
Unearthing a trove of treasures that are unlike anything known before.
