Composer and Performer Mikel Rouse is currently preparing for the launch of "Gravity Radio" a song cycle interspersed with actual radio reports taken from the AP Newswire. The original inspiration came from the physicist Raymond Chiao and his experiments with superconductors and - gravity waves, which exist in theory but have eluded detection.
Really enjoying Report 3. I like how it forces me to long to hear the 'reporter' say the things we don't usually say, in between the reports of things we think we care about. Like "When I am bored, I can't be bored with you."

It is like those singers in the eighties.
Sold more records than elvis, but most people had not heard of them.
But I feel things, the separation of the words from the energetic being. I don't see how not being personal in this kind of earthly vibration can tune them away from the collective song.

Its really like a great Champagne. I don't know how it is made, why terrific subtleties exist at different temperatures or as I get deeper in a bottle (or the next).
I don't think his efforts are easy to define and wonder if he leads us out there to make our own unique experience - and doesn't care perhaps about how hard it is to describe his "work".
He makes me think.

Hey, what do I know. I wasn't aware of those things. I just don't like the CNN tv and Dennis cleveland stuff, as much as he is trying to put art in it, it is still TV, and he would have to watch it to get the ideas.
It is like trying to make alcohol into orange juice. IMHO
But I like his other stuff, and would buy an album or more of his music, because I like that.

If you call 25 albums, 3 operas, 7 feature films and hundreds of domestic and international performances "gaps in creative output"... OK
You should check out Rouse's website IMHO.

He seems to like applying dissonance in with pop.
I had already done something like this.
But with Binuaral beats.
But no TV or radio, which would explain for the gaps in creative output.
