an EP by A-DUFF & ONE ARC DEGREE
On Feb 12,
2015, Mr. A. Duff and the signal response team of Messieurs I. Konstantios and
V. Kesalidis (more commonly known by their lab's call sign, One Arc Degree)
simultaneously and independently received 2 distinct radio transmissions
seemingly in direct response to humankind’s first contact with the outer world.
Theorising
that the transmissions were bent through space to arrive on earth less than
just one human lifetime from the sending out of the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2
spacecrafts in 1977. A-DUFF contacted One Arc Degree to record, collate and
then interpret the transmissions.
This sound recording is a collection of those 2 otherworldly communiques, each interpreted and re-formulated independently by A-DUFF and ONE ARC DEGREE. The process involved the initial decoding, a linguistic examination of the binary transmissions followed by the reformation of the communiques according to each sound engineer’s understanding. Numerous types of electronic equipment as well as soundwave manipulation and redirection devices were used in the process which also took much sweat, tears and hard work.
Communique 1 has been named Ethereal. It appears to be a blueprint of the life,
science, history and environment of the world from whence it came.
Communique 2 has been named Boimarc. It appears to be a blueprint in the form of
an inventory database, terms of measurement and possibly currency as well as a
communications cypher.
Thanks to
the passion and commitment of those sound engineers, you are privileged to be
among the first few to hear a response from an otherwise uncontactable and
still unknown world.
