Longplayer - How will we Be long?

A return to my Jean-Michel Jarre origins infused with a measure of Amon Tobin, with my usual dose of 'not what you expected'.

As usual, subwoofers are highly recommended (or headphones). 

For those curious, the name has roots (as always)...
1. Autonoe (or Jupiter XXVIII) 
A moon of Jupiter, belonging to the Pasiphae group or irregular retrograde moons.

2) Autonoë (daughter of Cadmus, who founded Thebes)
She and her sisters were driven into a bacchic frenzy by the god Dionysus (her nephew) when Pentheus refused to allow his worship in the city. When Pentheus came to spy on their revels, Agave, the mother of Pentheus and Autonoë's sister, spotted him in a tree. They tore him to pieces in their Bacchic fury...as retribution for Pentheus's lack of piety for the gods

Derived from the recording of the famous "52Hz Whale" [learn more about 'the loneliest whale in the world' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwgS3vFHuXg] at https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/acoustics/whales/sounds/sounds_whales_blue.html
The original was sped up 10x and very noisy.  I slowed it back down again but this renders the low song almost inaudible, so I then removed as much of the background noise as practical - you can hear glitch artefacts from the noise reduction, but it does let you hear the original low song of the whale. I think this is a much more realistic version than the ones that seem to be being used on popular websites.

1997-ish at Virgin Net — one of our first 'live webcast chatrooms' when we were experimenting with mixed media formats.

Brian brought in a little battery-powered guitar and took requests from those gathered on the Virgin IRC channel.

(he didn't like that someone was typing for him... )

A journey through a city, a time, a place, and an emotion that finds its feet and grows. This child absorbs the worlds around her, finding her rhythm, exploring, realising, evolving, replicating, fading.

<B>absorptance (n):</B>

a measure of the rate of decrease in the intensity of electromagnetic radiation (light) as it passes through a given substance; the fraction of incident radiant energy absorbed per unit mass or thickness of an absorber; “absorptance equals 1 minus transmittance”

Help take your mind off whatever it is that's on it ... 

before starting the day, I recorded Bach Prelude #1 on a harpsichord that happened to be passing by.

Today my grandfather would have turned 120 years old  (he lived to the astonishing age of 107 and it didn't seem unfeasible that he might just keep going). I recorded this in his memory
