Re: [microsound] impossible sounds



hello Kim,

thanks for posting this. -was noticing low tones in a violin recording just recently and commenting to a friend.

when i was a teenager i thought of somehow enhancing or amplifying (acoustically , that is ) the low tones from the violin and even of having a string section with only violins and bass viols ; calling it futuristic or avant garde , or something more chic than : 'i don't know what a 'cello or a viola is or don't know how to write in that clef'.

honestly , though: at first i thought it might be a sort of ambient room tone , mic rumble or extraneous vibration through the wooden floor. the violin is often very intense and it might be possible to cause other objects to vibrate at a fraction of the frequency of the fundamental violin tone.


... or maybe it's body electricity or blood circulation , or the difference between that and the resonant frequency of the earth and the note being played.
