Great article, thx for sharing it! What i want to know, where exactly is this city? I mean geographically, i even could not locate it on GMaps or the like?? I mean, i get it, thats the whole point isnt it? Still curious.


that's the work site. The residential town is about 10km SW of that marker.

Damn, that looks awful, those tailings alone…

And it looks like they have their own dedicated coal powerplant.

Yes,and I feel it's the sweetest home for many years.

40.230000,97.360000

Why?


Because of the cost of making and detonating so many bombs.


An App i suppose.

Despite looking like a mess on mobile, this was a delightful read.


Now we need to know more!


A substantial mythology has formed around the soundtrack's creation. One of the prevailing notions is that the sounds were generated by torturing and electrically overloading the "cybernetic circuits". There's evidence that this is simply artistic misdirection.

In reality, the music was carefully crafted and performed - with an emphasis on performance, rather than random events and sounds. (The genre of "Krell music" went off at a completely wrong tangent in this regard...)

It's unfortunate that Bebe Barron downplayed her own compositional technique and creative input in order to bolster this mythology.

The research is focused on the nature of the Barrons' cybernetic circuits. Using digital equivalents of these circuits, the aim is to recreate the title track, using only the techniques that were available to the Barrons in the 1950s.


Thx for the reply, but i only have more questions now… Good luck with your studies!


With this username you will be muted, rightly so.


The Sonic Youth Gig there was awesome ;)
