Could they be the alphabet of our emotional evolution? The in-between links or the errors – the DNA junk? Are our emotions evolutional junk, the potential of our evolution? Syren Oddissey is an audio visualization of my Periodic Table of Shadowed Emotions, the result of Eva's project Gr@y Matter – Language of Shadows. Frequencies of pitch have been associated with different moods, and the earth and the human body have different resonant frequencies associated with them. For the individual selected frequencies in Siren Odyssey, Eva tried to find textures and grooves that complemented the particular frequencies that were presented to her. The sounds you hear are all tuned to be consonant with the base frequency and therefore should amplify the feeling associated with that particular frequency. Vinyl record in sleeve.
