My first ever track as part of my Pyramid project. 

This is the sound you will hear inside the Red Root Pyramid. Designed to create harmony between light, colour and sound and give you a boost by grounding you to the earth and centering yourself though the drum beat. 

Sound Of The Root Pyramid

Sound Of The Pyramid

The Sound of the Blue Pyramid

Description of installation and future plans: 

7 coloured pyramids
hanging on one large tree
at head height and some at sitting head height
at a festival 
                       (see how people would interact with the installation, if some people people would be encouraged to meditate under them without being asked or interact in other weird and wonderful ways) 

Original idea for sound pieces: have speakers in each corner of the pyramid recreating the quadrophonic sound that the music was originally recorded in. Using the same effects that I used at the echoconciousness installation to move the sound around the room, it sounds like you were surrounded by people with drums, gongs and gave the impression of lots of people signing. Rather than just me and my friend. Quadrophonic means that the directon of sound can be played around your head and create crazy effects like the sund is moving in a direction rather around you.

Magically transferring the raw energy that was created when we were making the piece of music and when I was making the pyramid. I want my participants to experience this state of just being, not having to think or do, just be, pay attention to the sounds going on around you and the colour filtering on to your skin. When you are completely aware of what is going on around you in the now. There is not time for worry, stress, harmful thoughts, there is only room for what is happening Now at that precise time.

You will already feeling the positive energy of the pyramid, as you stand under it, if you want, try a simple meditation.
               
Breathing in then out deeply and evenly, drawing energy to your throat by thinking about breathing air IN towards your throat, thinking about releasing negative energy OUT through your breath.  

 ---- don't get too attatched to the 'word' meditation and any connotations that it may bring up for you - boring, slow, spiritual, not my thing, hippys, not interested. Remember it is only word used to describe an experience, not the actual experience itself:
''Just as, the word honey isn’t honey. You can study and talk about honey for as long as you like, but you won’t really know it until you taste it. After you have tasted it, the word becomes less important to you. You won’t be attached to it anymore... The reverse also applies: If, for whatever reason, you disliked the word honey, that might prevent you from ever tasting it.''
 
Just as your beiefs about the word meditation may be holing you back from ever experiencing the complete peace that it brings with it, because of an image created in your mind formed by other peoples words and beliefs you have made up from past experiences


                     Nothing controls your identity more,
                     than your thoughts,
                     that's an ego thing right there,
                     your thoughts aren't your true nature,
                     they are made up you,
                      not the true you,
                     the creator, 
                     these are my thoughts though..
                     no those were my thoughts,
                     these are not,these are words,
                     what are words,
                     things we write,
                     make up,
                     sounds, 
                     not feelings
                     describers,
                     confusers,
                     distractors,
                     argument starters,
                     bargin bashers,
                     misdirection,
                     an infection,
                     you can't stop, tick, tick, tock
