A composer who has already given up composing - because of his inability
to notate the music of the spheres - becomes increasingly fixated on
capturing a mysterious, eerie, distant sound, which he soon equates with
all the things he desires most: the perfect woman, the perfect city, the
perfect work of art. Obsessed with his impossible quest, the man breaks
out of the asylum and begins a series of comic, dreamlike, and
ultimately haunting adventures as he tries to locate the source of the
sound that consumes him... and instead finds the root cause of all his
failures.
