Notes: Released 1 Jan 2019, this is the first of two parts from a new band project by Dave Kerzner (ex-Sound of Contact, worked with Jon Anderson, Steve Hackett, Steven Wilson, ex-Giraffe). Acceleration Theory is a science fiction concept album about a female alien named AlienA (Wolf), who falls in love with a human, Kai (Agudo). She warns the Earth that we are in danger of being annihilated by aliens who have been responsible for man's evolution over millions of years. The project arose from material by Kerzner originally written for Sound of Contact, including with Dorsey, Simon Collins (son of Phil Collins) and Kelly Nordstrom before that project folded

A debut single, "Be the Light", was released 13 Dec 2018. There was a 4:33 single edit available on Amazon, or a more expensive 3-track release on Bandcamp:

    1. "Be the Light (single edit)" [mus: Kerzner/McStine; lyr: Kerzner] (4:33)
    2. "Be the Light (radio edit)" (3:59)
    3. "Meant to Be" [mus: Kerzner/Jon Anderson/Nordstrom; lyr: Kerzner] (2:17)

There is an accompanying music video. Kerzner wrote "Meant to Be" with Jon Anderson. In mid-Nov 2018, on ProgressiveEars.com, Kerzner said, "it's been fun working with [Davison] on my original project "In Continuum". He sings quite a bit on it including a song I co-wrote with Jon Anderson that he's singing tomorrow in fact!" The song was previously considered for Sound of Contact's Dimensionaut. Kerzner also uploaded the track to SoundCloud as "Meant to Be (I Remember Reprise)": there, the track was credited as vocal melody written by Kerzner/Anderson. (HP, 5 Jan 19).
