about

This piece was written in the winter of 2018 and explores a quiet sonic landscape that reflects the passage of thoughts observed through meditative practices. The work was composed entirely from field recordings of the construction of a sand mandala by monks from the Drepung Gomang Monastery as well as recordings of singing bowls taken from my home. The structure and form for the work is based on the spectral analysis of a single singing bowl resonance.

Originally realized in a Genelec 5.1 system, this is a stereo rendering.
