Gama initiated the Pangeia Instrumentos project in the early 90s in which he uses form as a variable in the composition process. He has since developed The Golian Modes Theory in which the score has a three dimensional component. The Golian Modes are four musical modes derived from the ancient Kongo/Angolan graphic writing system known as Bidimbu. The basis of the Golian Modes are the fundamental cosmogram known as Dikenga, and the concept of Nkizy, a religious object that is used to establish communication with the ancestors world.
