A multicultural journey through the traditional 28 Lunar Mansions.

Systems used are the Chinese (28 Lunar Mansions), the Arabic (28 Manzil), and the Indian (28 Nakshatra). For the video, the cycle of the moon mansions were aligned to begin with Aries (Sidereal).

The 28 Mansions are split into 4 sections (Quadrants) of 7 unique notes. The 7 notes used for each quadrant were derived from a single 28-TET octave arranged into a custom “Cycle of 5ths” (which is actually a “Cycle of 18/29”).

The names for each of the individual mansions can be seen on screen and sourced from:
Chinese: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-...
Arabic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_s...
Indian: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakshatra

Used To Be

Give It Time

Often the chaos and confusion of life needs to be turned down a few notches. This is an aural demonstration of how it feels to be overwhelmed by everything surrounding us.
