echos of your tears.

     
 
In the autumn night:
falling leaves, falling rain drops;
echos of your tears.

Meditation on the Sierpinski Tetrahedron

   
Meditation on the Sierpinski Tetrahedron


I now have video to go with my experiment for 15 synthizers:

Meditation on the Sierpinski Tetrahedron



Best experienced with eyes closed in a dark and cool room.

The experiment in the layering of synthesizers and rhythms over a bass drone and a bass ostinato continues.

Note: There are no actual Sierpinski Tetrahedrons in the video.

Waring: It is 19 minutes of navel gazing.


Score is at:

Meditation on the Sierpinski Tetrahedron


Note the recording with the video is a newer/better mix than the mp3 currently on the score exchange site.

a silent bell

     
only for my ears
I sing a song in the void
like a silent bell

the coming night

    
With the coming night
meditate on the darkness;
embrace the blackness
a billion stars in the sky
lights a path to my repose

The black cat

    
The black cat walks by
the white dog begins to bark
in the gray twilight

Afternoon

  
Dozing in my chair
Sunlight peeking through the leaves
Dreaming of summer

Evening

     
Evening thunder storm
greets me on my arrival,
puddles on the ground
