FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE CD
================================
The majority of scientific data came from the Voyager I and II spacecrafts and revealed particular sonic characteristics when the data was translated into audio. These characteristics, although similar for each planet, revealed unique indentities specific to each planetary passing. The piano and acoustmatic parts, although strikingly different in their design, form part of a whole.
