my _cosmic _music of the spheres__ 3 vlf compositions irvine regional park, california http://www.asondheim.org/ellektra.mp4 http://www.asondheim.org/elk.mp3 http://www.asondheim.org/elek.mp3 modification with notch filters and chorus in cooledit 1930 regal mandolin with four low-tuned bazouki strings sony minidisk and sony minidv video recorders light drizzle and clouded over, cool input directly from the vlf receiver loosely coupled antenna in dried creekbed visible at http://www.asondheim.org/vlfirvine jpegs comments although this was a fairly isolated area, the hum was enormous there were powerlines everywhere these are inescapable in southern california in relation to analog / digital the sounds are combinations of filters/effects/solarparticles/'music' the electrospherical local membrane is altered by metal strings these interact with the antenna field coupling and uncoupling as performer/technician, i was not grounded, due to the rocky creekbed there were ravens in the area the usual spherics/spikes are audible in a number of instances i think of this as my _cosmic swirl_ we interact everyday with electromagnetic fields of varying strength we are penetrated by these fields this is my _cosmic ode_ to the wondrous fields around us this is truly my _cosmic _music of the spheres__ +
