New & hot: Business

Despite registering the world’s first coronavirus vaccine, the country is being lashed by covid-19. Mixed messages and a long-cultivated mistrust are to blame. DARPA, America’s agency that funds blue-sky tech research, has been so successful down the years that now other countries want <a href="https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2021/06/03/a-growing-number-of-governments-hope-to-clone-americas-darpa?utm_campaign=the-intelligence&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_source=third-party-host&amp;utm_content=show-notes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">to copy it</a>.

Dropped shots: Russia’s third wave

The world’s youngest state was born amid boundless optimism. But poverty is still endemic and ethnic tensions still rule politics; <a href="https://www.economist.com/middle-east-and-africa/2021/07/10/south-sudans-second-decade-may-be-as-troubled-as-its-first?utm_campaign=the-intelligence&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_source=third-party-host&amp;utm_content=show-notes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">what hope</a> for its next decade?

A decade decayed: South Sudan

This track, titled as a pun that King Crimson's fans could like or maybe dislike, has been built using a single phrase of a sound source coming from a living being. Everything generates and revolves from and around it. at 3:00, that building block is clearly revealed (although some of its constitutive elements have appeared scattered here and there before, and the seed will reappear several times until the end).
This has been created motivated by the Disquiet Junto Project 0504: Transform Formula
The Assignment: Take a sound, change it, and contrast that with the original.

Our world is noisier than ever before and it's easy to miss God's presence in our lives. This composition is an invitation to slow down in order to hear that "gentle whisper" (still, small voice) mentioned in I Kings 19:12.

The Gentle Whisper

A little piano number. Short and sweet, like Sunny herself ^_^
