from the liner notes:
<I>transmissions (voices of objects and skies) was created for the exhibition transmissions from space at the fresno metropolitan museum. the entire body of work included sound, painting, drawing, and sculpture - everything inspired by john glenn’s first transmission from space, as well as rimbaud’s poem “vowels” in which each vowel is given a color equivalent. the sound installation consisted of 102 color coded tin cans hanging in a dark room - one for each vowel in glenn’s text. 64 of the cans contained small audio speakers playing an 8 channel soundwork, while other cans contained small 4 watt colored lightbulbs. the source material was recordings of satellites by amateur astronomers from the 1960’s through the 1980’s. these sounds have been processed and transformed electronically. the cd contains a stereo version of the installation that was re-worked for home listening and regular stereo speakers.</I>
