COH 'SOL'
seasonal meditations on AR 2192
Limited edition of 44 CD copies with hand-made artwork, facilitated with
help of blockchain technology. The album consists of four compositions
consequentially published as Solana NFTs, each in edition of 44, during
the astronomical events of 2023:
1. fiat sol 10:50 > Vernal Equinox; 20.03 22:24 CET
2. nox siderea; 09:58 > Summer Solstice; 21.06 16:57 CET
3. sit aurum 09:28 > Autumnal Equinox; 23.09 8:49 CET
4. in somno 09:00 > Winter Solstice; 22.12 4:27 CET
Using blockchain as a crowdfunding mechanism to finance manufacture and
distribution of the release, first holders of all four NFTs are entitled
to a physical copy produced at the end of the year. If only to compensate
for modernity of the ownership technology, the aesthetics of SOL is
intentionally archaic and contemplative, reflecting upon the relationship
between dark and light of the Sun, with graphic illustrations borrowed
from the alchemical works of Robert Fludd [1574-1637].
