The Stars http://www.alansondheim.org/threemeters.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/threemeters0.mp3 (slackbow violin inverse dynamics) three meter violin stars http://www.alansondheim.org/threemeters1.mp3 (slackbow violin) three meter violin stars The stars are three meters up in the sky. If you use something to reach them, they know that and move from that thing. But then they return when that thing is moved there. They are very fast. If you use a telescope to see them, they are the same size in the telescope. That is optics. Someone next to you or a mile away sees the same stars. They only shine straight down into things. There are many things on the stars. Some of them are quiet and some of them move about. You can hear them through a telescope. They make light with sound. You can listen to them. They are there, on the surface of the stars. Some say they are inside. The stars are not very bright. They are very close like tiny insects or leaves. They are good for living. The things on the stars are very happy there. They know each other and do not use names. Have you ever heard of names of things on stars. But they know each other well. They are always there, running and walking. They can fly but do not like flying. If they fly they may fall into a telescope. They would be too loud then. The sun and the moon are just the same. The stars move out of the way so the sun and the moon can go along. Then the stars move back to where they were. You cannot see them move, they are very fast. There are things on the sun but there are no things on the moon. The moon is a big truffle. You can see it in a telescope. It just moves about. The sun moves about too but it is always boiling. You can see the steam. It a big kettle. It is so close. That is why we are always hot. The shooting stars are two meters up in the sky.
