Astro-Harmonics "Music of the Spheres"
Presentation and performance at
"The Adelaide Planetarium"
Through a presentation and performance you will learn that like musical instruments, STARS, through their natural oscillations or vibrations, can be transformed into an audible sound waves.
We like to thank John Stuart Reid from http://cymascope.com for his support on this project.

Based on the Science of "Asteroseismology" The Science of Star Sounds !!
Background:
"Like musical instruments, STARS, through their natural oscillations or vibrations, can be transformed into an audible sound waves. Astrophysicists detect them through the science of asteroseismology or stellar seismology and then artificially boost the sounds to bring them into human hearing range, producing ghostly whistling, drumming, humming, or bell sounds, depending on their frequencies or speeds of vibration".

"The atomic processes within the atomic furnace of stars create sounds as a result of the high-energy collisions between atomic particles. These sounds cause the starlight to vary minutely, tiny modulations that can be detected by sensitive instrumentation, then demodulated, recreating the original sounds in the laboratory. Analysis of the star sounds can help asteroseismologists gain a better understanding of the atomic processes with a given star."
Visualisation:
Here below we see the process of the CymaScope
The star sound files were fed into a CymaScope, which makes the periodicities in the star sounds visible by imprinting them on the surface of ultra pure water, transcribing the sound periodicitiesƒ to periodic wavelets, effectively rendering the sounds visible.
INSERT
All
sounds
have structure when manifest on a membrane and by making the structure
visible on the surface of water the nature of the geometry can help scientists
understand the processes at work within planetary and celestial bodies
Stanford
University, in collaboration with the ESA and NASA, are studying the physics
of the Sun both deep within its core and in its outer corona and solar wind
regions,via the SOHO spacecraft data.
SOHO, which stands for "Solar and Heliospheric Observatory," was built in Europe by a team led by prime contractor Matra Marconi Space under overall management by ESA and was launched on December 2, 1995. The twelve instruments on board were provided by European and American scientists. NASA was responsible for the launch and is now responsible for mission operations. Large radio dishes around the world, which form NASA's Deep Space Network, are used for data downlink and commanding. Mission control is based at Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland.
The Stanford web site carries the full story together with some of the sounds captured by the SOHO spacecraft:

Music :
We will be using some of OR-ion CD and some other Star Sound Music
Using sounds and frequencies
of actual space sounds and ancient chants, fused with binaural
beats of sonic patterns ! This is a very deep cosmic meditation CD
attuning you to the Cosmos
