This dissertation project consists of an album of three pieces based on mystical processes and shimmering intonation systems, a series of scores, and a codex of imaginary illuminated works. This direction was inspired by research on holy numbers and their relationship to temperament and knowledge, Deep Listening, EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon), Infrasound, medieval traditions, and my readings in archaeoacoustics and aural architecture. These studies led to meditations and reflection on sound, the perceptual characteristics of space and objects, and the creative use of these characteristics.
