Wise is a modern classical album by Graham Rogers. It depicts a nomadic seaside community on a remote polar island under siege by a "malevolent landmass" and their eventual emigration from the location. It is a sort of threnody for lost innocence, as well as a soundtrack to the onset of the downfall of the World Wide Web. The work was written primarily for architectural and natural spaces and released on CDr on December 20, 2002.
