Constellations 2.0

2021

Ever wondered what the stars sound like? A composition that sonifies the positions of the constellations into a work that avoid diatoncism in an accessible and visual way. A star is an "attack" with the lines connecting them "sustain". The further the star is from the centre, the higher the pitch. Each outer ring orbit is 1 octave. You can start anywhere on the circle, play it backwards, adjust the speed (from 2 degrees per second) or let it go round infinitely - just like outer space. Panning matches where you are in the score.
