about

*note: this fades in over the course of 13 hours, the main drone gradually getting more resonant so the first hour or so is very quiet*

had a powerful meditation experience recently.. i found myself carry on counting the breaths past ten on and on (at the buddhist centre youre meant to jus count to ten over and over but i dont really see the point) and as the hour went on it felt more and more intense.. especially as i realized i was getting to 777 breaths.. the bell rang just as i got to ~750 so as people got up to leave i carried on to get to that number.

777 holds some arbitrary significance - the name sevenism has no meaning but i like looking for patterns around the number 7 and 777 has some totemic properties in my head.

anyway as i was getting closer i began feeling a deep intense sense of ecstasy that peaked at the end

this piece represents that experience - i had a 1bpm drone going for a few hours then slowed so that each minute represents a breath - 777 breaths in 777 minutes.

this is a complete piece that i had to split up so there are no fades
