Mars in G Flat.

The galaxy as intergalactic muse for Bach. Do the planets have a classical music signature? Yes, they seem to after seeing this inspired palindrome called Mandala. THE WORLD’S LONGEST, THEY SAY.

“With more than 62 vigintillion individual notes, “Mandala” is the longest palindrome in existence. Composed using the first nine partials of the Natural Harmonic Series repeating at the accelerated tempos of our solar system, Mandala would continue without repetition for over 532.25 septendecillion years. In homage to “Art of the Fugue” by J.S. Bach, “Mandala” has been crafted to include the “musical signature” of it’s author: the stereo imaging is arranged to reflect the exact position of the solar system at the moment of his birth, from the perspective of the Sun as it faces the constellation Libra, so that each note chronicles his birthday on every planet.”

Haven’t really had internet for a week.  It was kind of awesome, and although I wasn’t super-productive, I never felt unproductive, which is a good thing.  But now I have to catch up on cool things other people have done.  Like this.
