I grew up on the other side of the river, behind the power plant. To call this area nature, is a stretch. But, you'll seek any port in a storm, as they say. The trees are likely acacias, which can thrive in the detritus of industry. This area will return to nature, some day.
I lovelovelove all the Soma standalone creations. Still i would be curious what the true Soma potential in a cv modular or cv patchable tabletop would sound like.
