"HARTLIGHT introduces 'Bound To Eternity' as a captivating homage to the timeless philosophy of alchemical transmutation, drawing listeners into the mystical realm of ancient texts and their enchanting magic. The song embodies themes of self-discovery and self-realization, mirroring the contemplative nature of the Magnum Opus. Musically, it combines classic Heavy Metal with symphonic elements, including organs and choirs, to evoke a sense of meditation and melancholy. Epic guitar solos and mysterious melodies further enhance the atmosphere, while Noémie Marie's powerful and melodic vocals deliver the song's messages with sincerity and dedication."

"As a counteraction to the extremely negative perceptions of alchemy, often associated with the occult, I demonstrate a dynamic, international community, whose operational practices, far from being unscientific, included many of the criteria which are regarded in modern times as essential prerequisites of science. Determining exactly what constitutes good science is problematic, especially since it is disputed by some that science can even be distinguished from non-science. Therefore, a Wittgensteinian 'family resembles' approach to analysis of science has been selected, establishing the essential characteristics by which good science can be recognised. These criteria are divided into two groups, one designated ‘core requirements’ plus further ‘desirable’ elements."

"The three fundamental principles of alchemy (tria prima), namely mercury, sulphur, and salt, which the 16th-century physician and occultist Paracelsus associated with the soul, spirit, and body can be seen as corresponding to three schools of theatre:
‍
1. The genius of insight and improvisation as found in figures such as Hermes or Harlequin.
2. The actor’s presence, charisma, and emotional authenticity.
3. The distillation and refinement of theatrical interpretation as found in conservatories."
