 Alveromancy; the act of conjuring using sound
1) Calabi Yau (G2 manifold) is a massive, droning, striated solo electric guitar improvisation with it's title is taken from string theory; check out this image search
2) Deep Blue Dreaming is an electronic improvisation using audiomulch. Deep Blue was the IBM computer that defeated the human chess champion Gary Kasparov in 1997. now, with the growing sentience of AI computers, programmers are hoping to give them the ability to actually dream. "Commerce is our goal... 'more human than human' is our motto." - Eldon Tyrell in Blade Runner
3) Morpheus Descending free falls into the subconcious underworld as it rises up to meet you, leading you through a topography of shadowed memories and cleansing enigmas. skin drum, erhu, conch, melting ice, shortwave, flute, Tibetan bowl, electronics.
4) Beneath the City the darkness weaves together the muffled rumble of traffic, the diffused keening of subway trains on the rails, the rush of ghostly air streams you hear but never feel, the threatening hum and crackle of electric mainlines and the shaking of the earth itself. shortwave, electronics, sax.
5) Ariel, the magical air spirit in Shakespeare's The Tempest appears here clad in white noise and glass. stream it here
6) Aurora (Daughter of Heaven) is an improvised electric guitar duet named for both the mythology of the dawn as well as the shifting, pulsing curtains of light dancing in the night sky.
7) The Visitation is processed harmonics and percussion with an orchestral character and Pandia on voice. in the middle of the night, in the dark, amidst the echoes, in the solitude... revelation.
Dedicated to Arie van Schutterhoef
Limited edition of 96 numbered copies, 56 minutes, CDR, full color artwork print in a transparent sleeve, 3EUR plus shipping Available from Triple Bath

hello all. thx Tim - hey the sonics are even better than the words 
I don't know if it's set up for visa - I'll pass that along.
never did get my mac going, so for me on xp, winamp just pops up and plays ogg no problem. high quality audio format, but you don't run across it very often. I've got the Ariel track off the CD on my AS page;
hifi stream
btw Gideon, I've tried adding the CD to the store but all I get are error messages

Hello folks!
Tim, you can make a payment through PayPal if you state your card (VISA) number in your PayPal account. Else, you may just send cash in an envelope.
About the OGG file format, go here http://www.vorbis.com/ and you will find the decoder for all platforms.
There is a link to that page in the Triple Bath website, underneath the samples here: http://triplebath.gr/releases/trb.012.html.
There will follow an extensive press-release posted here as well.
I miss the folks here!

I like 'em all.
I've been listening to this CD for a couple days now on my way to/from work and all I can say is.....
This music consists of industrial strength drones dripping with deep space ambience. A aural trip through the deepest recesses of your mind. An absolute delight.
