Depicted is a picture of a picture of the RCA MKii synthesizer at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center from an exhibit "Sounding Circuits: Audible Histories" shown at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts. These were early days in the history of electronic music. "Summer Breeze" tries to capture some of that innocence (some folks may even hear a little Laurie Spiegel in this) before it all turned into a mad rave.
This is a case study on the virtues of very light modulation - the piece is based on the sound of Plait's chord mode, with the morph feature lightly set in motion by a 1.6 volt waveform from a Zadar envelope generator which scans a  wavetable very subtly

En 2019, des chercheurs californiens ont mis en évidence que le cerveau humain peut percevoir inconsciemment le champ magnétique terrestre. Ce sixième sens appelé « magnétoréception », si étrange chez l’homme, est utilisé habituellement par certaines espèces animales, notamment les oiseaux migrateurs, afin de leur permettre de s’orienter.
Ma partition, dans laquelle la harpe occupe une place importante, s’inspire librement des particularités de ce phénomène de magnétoréception.
La pièce s’ouvre avec le percussionniste qui produit un bourdonnement par deux aimants qui s’entrechoquent. De ce geste initial découlent divers sons granulaires repris aux cordes, à l'exception de la harpe. Bien que la harpe soit intégrée dans l’effectif dès le début de la pièce, elle ne fait qu’imiter les gestes et les sonorités changeants des autres instruments, en renonçant presque à ses modes de jeu idiomatiques. Au fur et à mesure que la pièce avance, la harpe émerge en tant que soliste. Elle passe de ces procédés d’imitation à ses propres modes de jeu plus idiomatiques.
Ce travail sur ce principe d’imitation de la harpe qui mène à sa perte d’identité, puis à la revalorisation de son écriture idiomatique (l’arpège, le glissando) a été mon guide pour la composition de la pièce.
Ainsi, la harpe en étouffant les cordes ou en utilisant certains accessoires comme le tournevis, le plectre, la raclette de fenêtre, la superball ou encore l’archet, se met « en quête de son identité ». La force d’attraction que représente l’environnement instrumental dans lequel elle est plongée, est comparable à ce champs magnétique discret qui guident sa progression.

Disquiet Junto Project 0455: Inner Invertebrate. The Assignment: What does a moment (or a day) in the life of a jellyfish sound like to a jellyfish?

I was doing another track, Andromeda Blossoming https://soundcloud.com/winterer/andromeda-blossoming-studio-version, which was originally not meant to be some kind of underwater track and which is made with the App Samplr on iPad with some of my own tracks plus some cc0 field recordings from freesounds. In this track, I more or less imaginated another evolution of 'the andromeda strain', one of my favourite sci fi movies, with its strange "unfolding" effect on the lab screens in the movie.

However, a lot of it's sound seemed to fit to this disquiet, so I removed anything un-jellyfishy and un-underwatery and did some new balancing of the components. This Cassiopea andromeda lives on the bottom of the sea and she looks up to the billowing world above her…
