The video shows my father and I in two different locations, clapping a music piece by Steve Reich called "Clapping Music".It’s a rhythm in circles that is being played by two musicians. The two are starting with clapping the same rhythm together, while one keeps the main rhythm with no changes through the whole composition, the other is shifting the downbeat of the rhythm every few bars. At the first part of the composition, he is moving away from the steady rhythm and gradually getting closer and closer until they reconnect.
