While 'Juncture' had previously aimed at deconstructing the binaries and dualities that shape our lives and thinking, 'Dog Mountain' is dedicated to geographical divisions that result from political processes and social constructions. \"Here' means one nation, 'there' another\", writes Huber in a literary piece that accompanies the record. \"Being in sound, such a separation seems odd.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhile treating the metaphor of the border as a \"membrane, registering and translating the vibrations of its surroundings\" and thus as something that is constantly (re-)defined, maintained and defended however, the artist also takes into consideration that \"one cannot escape one’s standpoint,\" as he puts it.
