6 E Q U J 5

Roberto Musci

Notes


The S.E.T.I. (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) project was officially born on February 1, 1985. It is the culmination of various research and studies aimed at searching for life in the universe. In 1977, the media sensation aroused the reception of a 72-second signal that went down in history as the "WOW!" message ( 6EQUJ5 ). The values (from 1 to 9 and from A to Z) indicate an intensity probably linked to an intelligent transmission. The signal came from the constellation of Sagittarius, from a star called 2MASS 19281982-2640123 which is 1800 light years away from the earth. The signal was detected by astronomer Jerry Ehman at about 11:16 p.m. Eastern Daylight Savings Time on August 15, 1977 by the Ohio University Big Ear radio telescope. These signals, sent on a precise band, can be considered as the presence of an extraterrestrial intelligence. I have imagined that , for each of the different signal strengths, there was a music transmission. 6 E Q U J 5 6 : 2'07" E : 1'58" Q : 2'08" U : 2'46" J : 2'10" 5 : 2'16" Cover and music : Roberto Musci ( Granular Synthesis , Vcs3 , Buchla , Arp ,Percussion ).
