Insinuating Music: Heliosphere Bouquet

Electric lap steel guitar through a Behringer Super Fuzz and Electro-Harmonix Bad Stone phaser set to manual in channel two of the Koma Elektronik field kit.
The lap steel guitar is being excited by cassette tape running over the strings. The cassette tape is from the DIY cassette tape delay which is feeding channel two of the field kit. The aux output of the field kit is plugged into the mic input of the record unit of the DIY tape delay.
There is a Hing Hon ek-001 keyboard going through a Korg Monotron Delay plugged into channel four of the field kit.
Channel three of the field kit has the kit's cv radio plugged into it. The cv radio is being modulated with a Light Dependent Resistor via the Koma's sensor interface.

I enjoy listening to these all the way through without watching. Then I immediately start it over and watch the performance. The origins and methods behind the sounds always surprise me on that second run. 🤯

[@soaringtortoise]

Thanks so much for watching twice. I very much appreciate that you do that. The origins and methods often surprise me during the performance.

Amazing as usual! Very inspiring. I’m an amateur sound artist and ambient musician and your work has galvanized me to play around and have fun with the process, whereas usually I would grow paralyzed by perfectionism.

[@soaringtortoise]

Thank you for listening. I am glad to hear that I have inspired you to loosen up a little. I know a lot of people with computers full of really cool music that will never see the light of day because of perfection paralyzation.

Breaking out some hidden gems-the ek001 and that magnificent mind-melting shirt.

[@soaringtortoise]

Love the ek-001. Yes, it is warm enough now to break out all the music shirts my wife bought me last year.

Very nice, John. I particularly like the clever way of bowing the strings!

[@soaringtortoise]

Thanks! Truth be told, I nicked that little tape bowing trick from another KZbinr. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYjKiZmqh9N_oNk With his permission of course.
