It is the first part of a trilogy, with ''The Ghost in Science'' being the second, and ''Virtual Rabbit'' being the third, that explores reality, religion, science and dreams. ==Background== In December 1988, P-Model, the post-punk/new wave band that Susumu Hirasawa was the leader of, was "frozen" after spending 2 years unable to arrange a recording deal. The album they planned to record, ''Monster'', would have continued the style built up in ''One Pattern'' and been themed around Jungian psychology & Japanese folk tales (Hirasawa was particularly inspired by Hayao Kawai's ''The Japanese Psyche: Major Motifs in the Fairy Tales of Japan'', and also read Joseph L. Henderson's ''Thresholds of Initiation''). Songwriting duties were shared among band members, with Hirasawa contribuiting five songs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://8760.susumuhirasawa.com/modules/ooparts/index.php?fct=photo&p=180 )〕 While working with P-Model, Hirasawa also maintained side projects at the same time, namely Shun and Fukō Project, where he made sampling experiments with the technology he was using; through those two and P-Model side-releases, Hirasawa developed new arrangements of older songs. Hirasawa was also carving out a career as an amateur CG artist in the beginning of 1989, establishing the private label "Photon" to distribute tapes through a mail order circle. In 1 March he changed the name of his management office from "Model House" to "Octave" as an untying of his other outlets from P-Model, the official fanclub followed suit a month after the album's release, from "Moire Club" to "Hirasawa Bypass". In the 4 April, Hirasawa signed a contract with Polydor and started recording the album in their studios, taking only a month to do so. His first solo tour took place one month later. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Water in Time and Space」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
