Disquiet Junto Project 0373: Copernican Music
The Assignment: Record a piece of music intended for an alien species.
---
For this piece, I thought about resonance, modulation, and rhythm, because if one was to strip away [as much as possible, anyway] the cultural considerations and expectations we have about music, then these aspects would be the core of what we'd be left.
This piece is built from a sample of a struck gong. I also thought about a part of Johnathon Keats' Copernican Manifesto [point 3]:
"Music must have the gross entropy of the universe. Let it be noisy."
