This was fun - lots of overlapping rhythms and plenty of fast chaotic melody.

I used to muck about with ReBirth a fair bit, play about with overlapping poly-rhythms. Back in the day, having a limited set of tools to use made it so much easier.

Sulpher

Soundscape inspired by the loneliness of space - when confronted with the immensity of the universe, mostly devoid of life - at least life that can interact. In the face of such isolation one may be tempted to scuttle beneath the shadow of a soothing solipsism - and retreat into ones own hypercube - a virtual bubble world, an experience machine designed to stroke and pluck at the social sensibilities of an animal evolved to inhabit the thin film of an unusual planet.

KIC 8462852 (also Tabby's Star or Boyajian's Star) is an F-type main-sequence star located in the constellation Cygnus approximately 1,280 light-years (390 pc) from Earth. Unusual light fluctuations of the star, including up to a 22% dimming in brightness, were discovered by citizen scientists as part of the Planet Hunters project, and, in September 2015, astronomers and citizen scientists associated with the project posted a preprint of an article describing the data and possible interpretations. The discovery was made from data collected by the Kepler space telescope, which observes changes in the brightness of distant stars to detect exoplanets.
Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the star's large irregular changes in brightness as measured by its light curve, but none to date fully explain all aspects of the curve. A prominent hypothesis, based on a lack of observed infrared light, posits a swarm of cold, dusty comet fragments in a highly eccentric orbit. However, the notion that disturbed comets from such a cloud could exist in high enough numbers to obscure 22% of the star's observed luminosity has been doubted. Another hypothesis is that of a large number of small masses in "tight formation" orbiting the star. However, spectroscopic study of the system has found no evidence for coalescing material or hot close-in dust or circumstellar matter from an evaporating or exploding planet within a few astronomical units of the mature central star. It has also been hypothesized that the changes in brightness could be signs of activity associated with intelligent extraterrestrial life constructing a Dyson swarm. However, the scientists involved are very skeptical, with others describing it as implausible.
KIC 8462852 is not the only star that has large irregular dimmings, but all other such stars are young stellar objects called YSO dippers, that have different dimming patterns. An example of such an object is EPIC 204278916.
New dimming events of KIC 8462852 began in the middle of May 2017, and totaled, as of 12 September 2017, four prominent dimmings, the last one being the largest of the year, with a 2.2% (or a 3%) dimming. These events have provided the urgent opportunity for worldwide, real-time, coordinated data collection.
