Contribution to a project by Maria Norefors. Maria asked participants to interpret the digits of the golden ratio musically written on common music paper.
The symbols on the paper resemble some sort of sheet music. However,in place of the common musical notation there is a constant stream of digits running throughout the pages. The digit's positions on the staves seem to indicate the note pitch but there seems to be no information about the note duration.
Instead of picturing a process the notation represents but one point in time of the calculation of the golden ratio which is associated with the idea of harmony. The basic idea of this piece is to reconstruct the process that had actually led to this result employing the fibonacci algorithm.
You will hear two short continous loops, one on the left channel and one on the right and over the course of this recording they will slowly tune into the golden ratio.
