Fabio,
I have a full length called "Desert Rock From Outerspace".
I've completed the 5.1 mix for it and am now generating
visual samples to complete the visual element for the DVD.
It was inspired by my experience at Burningman.  Where you
live, breathe and eat dust.  It's a fine particle dust
that is alkali based as it used to be a acient ocean bed
and is now a vast sparse desert.  My views of the stars
and the moons from the deseret have been amazing and
the whole Black Rock City (the town name for BM) is
very surreal, like another planet.  Sun Ra I'm sure is
with us there.  Any more info you'd like?
