If done well it's constructing a world with a focus on a mood, a 
narrowing of emotions.

There are numerous exceptions but I'm convinced by and large microsound 
is more about process and experimenting. I mean I'm sure it can be 
microsound and express a mood. While I'm sure one can interpret 
something as having more of one kind of mood than another, but still, I 
mostly hear people expressing the desire not to consciously set a mood.
