A chart, heard: I played my natal chart, 21 factors, each from its own motion, by one published law

The first natal chart audio I could find. No earlier work I found sounds both the Ascendant and Chiron. A natal chart can be played by one law that makes no choice per chart, and the first chart I played is mine: 8 March 1998, 10:10 in Sofia. Others have turned charts into sound: the methods that print their rule sound the planets and a few points, and the products that say they sound more keep their rule closed. None I found gives the Ascendant, the Midheaven or the Lots a sound by a printed law. My law takes every one of the 21 factors a chart engine computes. Each factor's pitch is its mean cycle raised by whole octaves to the octave nearest 220 Hz, a hertz being one vibration a second, scaled at every moment by its true speed over its mean speed, so a planet standing still slides to silence and back. Each factor stands, left to right, where it stands on the natal wheel, and every body, heard alone, plays over its own measured signal from the mission archives. In the year after my birth Mercury reverses six times, the true node 53 times, and the Ascendant runs at 0.77 to 1.81 times its mean speed. One command renders any other chart from a moment and a place. I make no claim about character, fate or perception. This record holds the paper (OCO paper IP-A21) and its 22 sounds. Headphones.

Abstract

The first natal chart audio I could find. No earlier work I found sounds both the Ascendant and Chiron. A natal chart can be played by one law that makes no choice per chart, and the first chart I played is mine: 8 March 1998, 10:10 in Sofia. Others have turned charts into sound: the methods that print their rule sound the planets and a few points, and the products that say they sound more keep their rule closed. None I found gives the Ascendant, the Midheaven or the Lots a sound by a printed law. My law takes every one of the 21 factors a chart engine computes. Each factor's pitch is its mean cycle raised by whole octaves to the octave nearest 220 Hz, a hertz being one vibration a second, scaled at every moment by its true speed over its mean speed, so a planet standing still slides to silence and back. Each factor stands, left to right, where it stands on the natal wheel, and every body, heard alone, plays over its own measured signal from the mission archives. In the year after my birth Mercury reverses six times, the true node 53 times, and the Ascendant runs at 0.77 to 1.81 times its mean speed. One command renders any other chart from a moment and a place. I make no claim about character, fate or perception. This record holds the paper (OCO paper IP-A21) and its 22 sounds. Headphones. I intend to seek patent protection for the method. The CC BY 4.0 licence on these files grants no patent rights. Part of The sound of the sky: 12 papers and their sounds: 10.5281/zenodo.23986764.
