Luigi!! It's you! It's lovely to see you back :)

I'm listening to the fan on the computer suddenly go nuts, unfortunately. Everything was quiet and peaceful until a new seti wu got underway I will suspend boinc and wait for things to calm down then give her a listen :)

@Pierre. It's absolutely AGES since I last listened to any Ah-ha. I will have to rectify that too.

It's an important fan, don't let it down ! In the meantime here's a soothing and calming one. You're welcome.

On the other hand, perhaps that work unit has hit the cosmic jackpot and, containing precious extraterrestrial technosignals, is making your hardware go haywire ? If so, please let us know if as the discoverer you're making the front pages.

Not so surprisingly they are ageing very well as this demonstrates (MTV live session) so yes come back for a while to your musical roots; one of the ways to stay forever young, Annie :)

I'm just listening to a selection that's randomly coming out from my jukebox's 15000+ play list.

Cheers.

In the meantime here's a soothing and calming one.

I used to work in a hotel overnight, and the biggest request by far was a box fan for white noise at night.

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

I'm listening to the winter wind howling outside.

How strange.... Now wondering how the white noise of fans, big and small, might have contributed to the attractiveness of SETI@home =:)

I'm listening to the winter wind howling outside.

I think winter winds (especially on endless plains or frozen lakes or rivers) is how eternity howls. Whenever I go up north in the depth of winter, this soon becomes a haunting spell, sometimes interrupted by the nocturnal howls of a wolves' pack on the trace of deers seeking refuge (not always successfully) near inabited cabins.

Perhaps seeking refuge myself in an anechoic chamber could be a way to temporarily escape the wolves' packs of the mind, has anyone here tried that ? =:)

Well I was listening to my jukebox again until the power went out.

Now I'm checking out what's on TV, but it's not looking good so far.

Cheers.

Schubert Ninth Symphony played by the Mozart Orchestra at Lugano LAC. Claudio Abbado founded the Mozart orchestra. He died on January 20 2014. I have seen on TV Victoria Mullova playing Bach on her violin besides Abbado's casket at his funeral service. They had a son, who is also a musician.

A gorgious night at the geographical south pole (Keck Telescope Array, Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, Antarctica) https://youtu.be/t57DPnH06V0 (music: "Diana" by Tony Anderson/6 mins timelapse video)

Listen to this it will bring a tear to your eye and maybe goosebumps all over.

Country Roads is a very nice song.
But wait a minute. How did Willie Nelson find the Eiffel tower in West Virginia?

Hehe:)

I have a Japanese version of Country Road’s. But the Eiffel Tower is in Las Vegas. Lol.

I see. All roads lead to Las Vegas not West Virgina:)

Listening to Star Trek: Kobayashi Maru.
Now the cd I made has changed over to Star Trek The Original Series Volume 10: Elaan of Troyius / Spock’s Brain. It is playing the music score from those two episodes.

Great discovery, thanks Puh. I usually try to avoid ambient music, but this composer is rather eclectic, and has something to offer to everyone.

I especially liked from Björn Lynne these pieces: Sirius X, Koloss, Incoming transmission, Poisoned planet, Mechatron, Join the Team (sorry, not sure anyone would want to join this team) and Send me a signal (oops, it's SETI@home themed, but that's from the late Keith Flint's group The Prodigy).

Inspired by a book from Arthur C. Clarke with a very similar title, this is one of my Desert Island selections; colonizers embark aboard an intergalactic vessel and, after a long trip, settle down on a water world where they meet inhabitants with whom Earth previously made contact - Mike Oldfield - The Songs Of Distant Earth.

Imagine you find yourself drifting into empty space with no possibility of controlling your spacecraft.

This desperate journey between hope and despair is what the 1997 “Into the void” album by Björn Lynne seeks to capture.

Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSN_rL21dwM&list=PL681s7S5-qEYKjD7tMz3MD43YW6r9_3ut&index=1

I find many of the tracks to be fantastic. But I have to say that “Relentless” and – above all - “The Nothing” are my favourites. (What a spectacular track that is, “The Nothing”!)

Please let me be clear that this album does not contain any immediate chart-toppers (as I see it). On the contrary, you have to listen to it a few times to get the hang of it. But if and when you do, you’ll be duly rewarded – in my experience.

As you can imagine, I am not the copyright holder of that Youtube entry.

Is this related to SETI@home? Only very vaguely, I suppose. (But enough to warrant a “Don't know where it should go? Stick it here.” post, I figured.)
