Ambientstudy5.wmv

Another three layer ambient background study. I used the ZynAddSubFx software synthesizer and modified the Full Choir instrument and the Hypermatrix instrument to produce the sonic texture. I mixed and applied special effects using Audacity. The video was done with a small video recorder pointed at the computer screen and recording the visualizer on Movie Player on Linux Mint OS 9. I added special effects on Windows Movie Maker, mainly a rotating color tint. The text is related to a karma burning chant "Om Namo Amida Buddha Hreeh". There are instruction embedded on how to meditate inside the video. There are ten repetitions of the mantra inside the video, because one Pure Land sect sutra mentions that if you chant only ten times with sincere intention (faith is not necessary, just a sincere wish to open up to grace if it is there), then you can become liberated from sorrow and be reborn in a world of peace.
