The proper meaning of the title of this album designates a kind of stem in plants which, in particular, has a structure of roots evolving in horizontal directions. However, this title has been designated for the purpose of referring to the various human roots continuously developing in us, representing the accumulation of the various knowledge and influences acquired in life.
