have you ever approached indie devs who need atmospheric soundtracks because this would be perfect for a myriad of experiences.

feels like i am underwater beneath an oil ring while a submersible craft patrols nearby. but the twist is there is no organic lifeforms anywhere!

Caught In The Wake Forever - Temple Walkway

Black Space Sessions - Part 1 (excerpt)

Fourth in a series of outdoor Immersive Mixes, this ambient soundscape was composed within a massive snow spiral 'eddy' set high up in a meadow in the Sangre de Cristo mountains. Nearby in the aspens sits an igloo with magical windows and thick snowbrick walls. This mix is an homage to the high country mountains and the damp quiet of snow and ice...and to the intercontinental connectivity of critical climate and water cycles of Earth, so much of which involves the brilliant polar realms. Reflections on water come in many forms, and here can be experienced frozen in the block of an igloo, or carefully carved into an interactive and compelling destination for the snowshoeing adventurer and/or contemplator.  

The spiral and igloo, perched at over 10,000 ft in the Big Tesuque drainage overlooking the Rio Grande valley, have been created by Santa Fe environmental artist Channing Huser as part of her ongoing multi-year land art project to document -- in strikingly visceral fashion -- metrics such as snow pack, water supply and climate change in the vicinity of Santa Fe's precious, mountainous watershed. Based upon her astute observations and experiences of the meadow, the spiral grows with snowfall (she digs it out and builds it up regularly after storms) and shrinks with bouts of warm, melting weather. Photographed each year in March, the spiral serves as an earthly barometer...measuring in sculpted turns the fall of snow - and ultimately water - along with the variability and dynamic nature of climate and mountain life above the high desert. 

But it is also a simple, beautiful spot for a vigorous snowshoe and outing with friends, evocative of  the movement of water and energy, with a 100+ mile view to put it all in perspective.  Magical indeed.
