Transmissions is an aleatoric music and visual art project founded by myself and Christopher Bruno of Sophomore. Peacock. The project is based on research on the effects of sound on consciousness, Unified Wave Theory, String Theory, Sound Healing, Chakra Balancing, and a culmination of cross-cultural mythology.
We have based the experiment around three tenets that we adhere to during live transmissions as well as for studio production. First, each tone in the 12-note chromatic scale corresponds to one of the twelve zodiacal phases. Secondly, this zodiacal cycle corresponds to the electromagnetic spectrum, where each whole note corresponds to a specific color and chakra. Lastly, the "Golden Ratio", Phi, is applied as a verifiably present function in most organic structures as well as works of graphic, musical, and narrative art.
Currently the Transmissions Project is being performed live at the Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition's Fall Lineage exhibit (http://bwac.org/) every Saturday at 3pm in October with musicians C. Bruno, and Strnglv, and with live/exhibited art by myself and Caitlin McGrory, all of Sophomore. Peacock Collective (http://www.myspace.com/sophomorepeacock). A studio Transmission track called "Taurus Apart" from the Taurus Zodical month in C# can be downloaded free (http://www.last.fm/music/Sophomore.+Peacock/Norm+de+Plume/Taurus+Apart), and Sophomore. Peacock's latest track off of their upcoming LP, which is written in the same vein of the Transmissions project can be downloaded for free (http://sophomorepeacock.bandcamp.com/track/the-electrician-contemplates-...).

Thanks Jedi
Really glad you like it, so far there has been some really good sessions, my favorite has been from 10.9.10. If you're in the NYC area we have one last performance at BWAC Saturday Oct 30 @ 3pm-5pm. Its out in Red Hook so it's a bit of a journey, but we'd love to see you out there. (www.bwac.org).
We're going to be continuously posting the Recordings from the Transmissions Project at www.transmissions.bandcamp.com, and until the official Transmissions website is completed, and you can see the live transmissions painting, as well as drawings, at www.artofchriskaplan.com.

I won't be able to make it, but thanks for the links. Putting the Phi ratio into music is an excellent endeavor.
Quite alright, and you're
Quite alright, and you're very much welcome. Yes its been a very interesting experiment thus far, we're pretty happy with what's been created, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves.
