RA - Live at Adelaide Planetarium > Sacred Resonance Review

RA


Sacred Resonance did 5 - 60min shows over 2 days at Adelaide Planetarium - Feb. 26-27th, for Fringe 2011.

It was a sell out with some shows taking extra numbers at the door ! During this show also the new CD single OR-ion was released with a great success !

The idea of the sun 'RA' was behind our show and the connection with solar cycle 24 ! We were exploring the latest in NASA 3D imaging and animation in Full Dome with actual space sounds that sync with the animation ie solar, pulsars and earth hum as some examples.

Not only that we explored in techniques in musical composition of the 'RA' frequencies:

"In 1991, Howarth contacted Bateman and collaboration began from which eventually birthed RA Natural Frequency Music. In 2004, Alan teamed with Dr. J.J. Hurtak and the Academy of Future Science and began field research by traveling to the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico and making acoustical recordings to measure the resonances of 200+ Mayan temples. In 2005, they also traveled to the Kings Chamber in the Great Pyramid in Egypt."

This will be explored more fully in our talk on March 9th - Multimedia Presentation the Sacred Science behind the show RA - http://www.sacredresonance.com.au/

The show consisted of three section using the Adelaide Planetarium to the maximum potential in all media functions.

1. 3 Flat Screen Projectors using the latest in NASA Solar Visualisations and Animations.
2. Mirror Dome ie Full Dome Projection via (Controlled by Quartz Composer Mac)
3. Zeiss Jena ZPK1 star projector which projects an artificial night sky onto the eight-metre diameter domed ceiling to represent the night sky and can be used to show the position of constellations, stars and planets.

The Sound/Music consisted of 3 Sections:

1. Live Laptop via iphone controller (OSC touch app)  using 'Live' and just sounds from space with digital effects ie reverb, filters to emulate deep space.
2. Live Laptop with sounds from space, (pre-composed piece from the Nadaum Experiment, which used a muon detector (detects cosmic particles from space : see previous blogs) into beat states, fused with ambient beats and washy synths.
3. Toriton Plus - from Seb. http://little-scale.blogspot.com/2006/11/toriton-plus.html controlled via Max/MSP and Laptop 'Live' using lazers and water as a organic composition. (See Rainbow Serpent Blog) http://djzeropoint.blogspot.com/2011/02/rainbow-serpent-2011-ascension-engine.html  and live harmonic overtone singing.


This was one of our best shows using the latest in 'New Media' and a full Live element !

More images and movie files to come.

The launch of our new project - Star Link Mission with the first project of 3luminal will be a new step for Sacred Resonance in developing a whole experience in new media ! New blog on this coming soon. http://www.starlinkmission.com

Peace ! (thanks to all my friends for support)
