  1. Slow Radio : Neutron Star CP 1919 : Pulsar

    Slow Radio : Neutron Star CP 1919 : Pulsar

    A freshly picked runner bean being inserted into an electric fan forms the basis of this soundscape. Neutron Stars are the densest objects in the Universe and as they spin they create beams of radio waves which we detect as pulses, here on Earth. Having read the book "Neutron Stars: The Quest to Understand the Zombies of the Cosmos" by Katia Moskvitch, I was inspired to produce a handmade copper plate mezzotint print and this soundscape, both available at www.iamthehow.com/store  ---> HEADPHONES ON! ---

    Slow Radio : Io Surface Detail : Part III

    Part III : An invitation to walk in the foothills of Mongibello Mons, a mountain some 23,000 feet high on the surface of Io. Field recordings from the Pecos Mountains, mixed with thunder, piano and flute take us on an imaginary journey through this alien landscape.

    Slow Radio : Volcanic Activity on Io : Part II

    Part II : Simple piano chords... a flute ... the lazy rocking of a ferry in Shetland and a recent storm, create a soundscape that allows us to witness the most volcanically active body in our solar system: Io.

  4. The making of The Moons of the Solar System

    The making of The Moons of the Solar System

    An acoustic journey through our solar system as we visit 'other moons'. The sounds of distant chains saws, wind turbines, elastic bands and springs are mixed and treated to convey a sense of wonder as we journey to Enceladus and Io. Each piece accompanies a handmade print which can be viewed via the link while listening, to provide an experience in both sound and vision: https://www.iamthehow.com/store/. As the compositions are 'slow', with periods of silence, the use of headphones is highly recommended. Not long ago the planets and their moons within our Solar System were thought to be void of activity, but now we know there is active geology and climate throughout. The ice bright Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, would sit in the North Sea; a small moon with a big story waiting to be told: thick ice with massive crevasses 'The Tiger Stripes' through which the waters of the hidden ocean erupt into the geysers that reach into space. And then there's Io, one of the four Galilean satellites that orbits the gas giant Jupiter; it is about the same size as the Earth's Moon, but it's subject to intense gravitational warping, which most likely explains the high level of volcanic activity.
