hello friends! i have posted a 12-minute drone vid

hello friends! i have posted a 12-minute drone video in commemoration of the 62nd anniversary of the USSR satellite Sputnik 1 burning up while reentering earth’s atmosphere. sputnik 1’s mission lasted a short three months. during that time it completed 1440 orbits of the earth. * LINK IN BIO *

recorded using a minimal eurorack modular synth setup: @noiseeng loquelic iteritas thru @4ms_company DLD and @mutableinstruments clouds.

FFO: godspeed you! black emperor, merzbow, sunn o))), sleep research facility.
