"All seven planets of TRAPPIST-1 (dwarf star system) are likely to be "tidally locked" (one side of each planet permanently facing the star), making the development of life there "much more challenging". A less likely possibility is that some may be trapped in a higher-order spin–orbit resonance. Tidally locked planets would typically have very large temperature differences between their permanently lit day sides and their permanently dark night sides, which could produce very strong winds circling the planets. The best places for life may be close to the mild twilight regions between the two sides, called the terminator line."
-thanks wikipeedya!

this track is made from a wonky tuning fork recorded onto cassette tape loop. all sounds here are taken from within that loop. hazy tape fuzz layer after layer hisses i want to just keep adding layers until the silence gets completely obliterated but time also matters. maybe i'll make a much longer version of this piece. probably knot. farther than lightyearsaway sways. seas of distance how all in unison and apart wee are in relation to any other point in the ga laxy.

for this i messed with the pitches manually by hand with speed altering dial on handheld recorder while transferring the track into the compu & also sourced exact pitch change specifics from www.ozonehouse.com/mark/dj/trappist.html for fun exactitude in chaos patternmaking.
