DESCRIPTION
This piece is a musical composition, restrained on melody that has been composed solely with computer and electronic based instruments alongside sounds recorded in the jungles of Thailand. All sounds were generated via modular synthesis including all EEG waves. All sounds planned and randomly generated were arranged and composed into a repeating but linear musical composition. Within this piece there are various sonically induced tones aimed to trigger various states of brainwave activity such as increased mental awareness, relaxation, excitement, etc. This piece is set up in conjunction with Udderthump 2000, with two channels specially created for Udderthump's transducers, allowing people to feel, as well as hear, the composition.
