Saturn is a source of intense radio emissions, which were monitored by our Cassini spacecraft. The radio waves are closely related to the auroras near the poles of the planet. These auroras are similar to Earth's northern and southern lights. This is an audio file of radio emissions from Saturn.

‘Âphâr is an Hebrew word that means “dust”.
This piece is inspired on the dream of Jacob, described in the Old Testament:
Jacob had a dream: He saw a stairway erected on the earth with its top reaching to the heavens. The angels of God were going up and coming down it and the Lord stood at its top. He said, I am the Lord, the God of your grandfather Abraham and the God of your father Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the ground you are lying on. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth (Genesis 28).

To climb Jacob’s ladder is a very difficult process. Each step you take is harder than the previous one and takes more time and effort to accomplish. These steps are heavy, and the dust in your feet is spread around, and finally disappears. If you reach the top of the stairs, everything else is gone, and a door closes to the rest of the world, you have reached infinity.
‘Âphâr was composed at the composer’s personal studio and at the Electroacoustic Music Studio of the University of Aveiro. It received the first prize in Yamaha-Visiones Sonoras competition (Mexico) in 2007.

Granite (von lat. granum „Korn“) sind massige und relativ grobkristalline magmatische Tiefengesteine (Plutonite), die reich an Quarz und Feldspaten sind, aber auch dunkle (mafische) Minerale, vor allem Glimmer, enthalten. Granit entspricht in seiner chemischen und mineralogischen Zusammensetzung dem vulkanischen Rhyolith. Granit tritt gewöhnlich massig auf und kann durch horizontal und vertikal verlaufende Klüfte (dreidimensionales Kluftnetz) in Blöcke zerlegt sein, seltener ist Granit in der Nähe der oberen Grenze der Intrusion plattig ausgebildet.

Wiklow’s 'Green Dragon, Black Tortoise' is the latest release off Abandoned Audio, sublabel of Berlin based 31337 Records; a premonition of audio that accompanies satellites, where echoes of the organic meet robotics busy at work, deep in the void. Occupying a space between IDM and ambient glitch, organic samples are peppered about and spring forth like sun flares in and among the cosmos.

At it’s core 'Green Dragon, Black Tortoise' is a flirtation with essentialism, stripping bare layers of structure and expectation, where observation meets reflection and experience meets perception.

Remaining mindful of the meditative space held by each track, a contrast can be felt throughout the record of careful precision that finds a way to flicker like a flame in the dark. Reminiscent of the past but unquestionably of the future, if AI could dream, this would be the soundtrack to the algorithms processed in space. - Words by Michael Armstrong

This piece is inspired on the first vision of the prophet Ezechiel:  
Et vidi et ecce ventus turbinis veniebat ab aquilone et nubes magna et ignis involvens et splendor in circuitu eius et de medio eius quasi species electri id est de medio ignis (Ezechiel 1:4).
And I looked, and behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire unfolding itself; and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
Et Ignis Involvens was commissioned by Gulbenkian Foundation, and was composed at the composer’s personal studio and at the University of Keele Electronic Music Studio. It received the first prize at Metamorphoses 2006 Competition (Belgium).

Björk - The Pleasure Is All Mine (Gregg Dunsmore Edit)

N'vi'ah is an Old Testament word meaning prophetess. 
A prophetess conveys one or more divine messages often in the form of inspired songs. And many times her words are cryptic, requiring interpretation or even translation. This work uses isolated phonemes as musical material. Intelligible words are not articulated, leaving to the listener the imagination of what their contents and meanings could be. N'vi'ah was commissioned by the Ibermúsicas Project, and composed at the Human Interaction Laboratory - Diego Portales University in Santiago de Chile. It is dedicated to Federico Schumacher.
