MIGRAINE <<<<\\\|^|///>>>>
http://www.alansondheim.org/Baluchistan.jpg Baluchistani suroz on Baluchistani rug, thank you Karen and Murat! http://www.alansondheim.org/migraine.mp3 Playing sarangi during a full-blown optical/faintness migraine attack. For me the piece is remarkable; towards the end I was able to match the visual flicker- rate with the sarangi, and the patterns were modified into a dark pulsating square which moved to the upper- left of the visual field. I felt fainter and fainter. The music becomes more rhythmic and persistent in time with the visual pulsations. The colors also shifted to ones I had never seen with migraine before. I'm fascinated by the results. http://www.alansondheim.org/madal1.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/madal2.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/madal3.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/madal4.mp3 Earlier, experimenting with a madal Nepalese drum, working through patterns and textures. Slow at times and clumsy but thoughtful? (The drumming did not contribute to the migraine, which I still have, somewhat ferociously. _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
