The knowledge about the ’Secret Life of Plants’ has been transmitted by shamans, herbalists, witch doctors since the paleolithic ages until today to various animistic cultures, naturopaths aso. 
Since the 1970s science and researchers increasingly supports the concept that plants operate with an innate complex intelligence diverse from our own. 
By deciphering and registering the impulses and interactions of plants, researchers developed devices that transform the plant’s biofeedback into a sonic data.
Fitted with two electrodes settled (without harming) on the leaves or the bark my device converts electrical plant variations into audio, and sends the signals for edition to an app with sound library. This makes the plants `life stream` audible for us in a creative way. 
The best is to listen and meditate over a long period to the shifts that the plant is going through as its responding to its shifting environment. 
Every plant and tree is different in its characteristics and spirit. 
As part of a little but enthusiastic community of plant musicians, sound-builders, avantgardists and city neurotics I feel like I have found a hidden treasure. 
I can integrate and mix the voices of the Green Folk in compositions AND share the magik and live-moment with others in nature rituals to get in touch with the Otherworld. 
In an age of anxiety I think there is a growing desire to re-connect with nature.

"...A compendium of cat songs, laments and wails in aid of cat shelters both in Belgium and Scotland. The Covid pandemic has left animal charities with a severe shortfall in their funds, as their usual routes of raising money have been limited over the last sixteen months. With this in mind, Grey Malkin (Scotland) and Sven Visterin (Belgium) contacted various friends, artists and performers to ask for contributions to a 'cat compilation', from which all proceeds will go to feline charities....."

"Dharma & Alchemy:

Nothing is more dangerous than an untamed mind. Especially in these modern days with all this multitude of distractions and diversions.

The daily rat race at work, the constant bombardement with advertisements for things one does not need at all in the end, the loss of familiar structures and the steady decline of values such as respect for nature and life itself lead many into depression and alienation.

The Sanskrit word „ Dharma“ means „Nature of Reality“. Working with one´s own mind (concentration/meditation) together with morality and wisdom, will lead to the final realization of one´s mind and put an end to distractio and suffering ( Transformation/Alchemy).

This is the work of likeminded artists from all over the world who are either influenced by the Dharma or even practicing the Dharma in their daily life."
