Monuments is an installation for video and quad surround that was written in the studios at the Centre de Creation Musicale Iannis Xenakis (CCMIX) while Luke was attending the Electronic Music Summer Intensive in 2006.

Inspired by the many fantastic cathedrals in Paris, particularly Notre Dame, and Parisian night life, Monuments aims to conjure a feeling of darkness being illuminated by various sources, for example stained glass, the bright lights that illuminate the many Parisian monuments at night or dawn through the pyramid at Muse de Louvre. Stan Brakhage's Chartres Series (1994), which was itself inspired by a trip to Chartres Cathedral, was also an inspiration.
