These tracks began as experiments with different harmonic tones to find the
most minimal sound elements I could use. In mixing these simple tones. A
scenographic soundscape of tonal juxtapositions shifting like stars in
the sky emereged from my speakers. Like the vision so wonderfully
realized in Andreas Cellarius's great star atlas, the "Harmonia
Macrocosmica" (1660). I dedicate these sounds to his work.

About Jack Hertz

Jack Hertz has been playing, composing and recording for more than 30
years. His first experience with sound began with analog reel machines,
microphones, percussion and a Casio VL-Tone. His first true synthesizer
was the Alpha Syntauri digital synthesizer that was was hosted by an
Apple IIe PC. The steep learning curve exposed him to a universe of
concepts nearly a decade before others.

Jack is a seasoned improvisor who finds all aspects of creating sound
fascinating. From the early percussion instruments to the present day
hardware and software innovations. Generally, Jack is searching for a
sonic middle ground between the real and the artificial. Utilizing
computers, synthesizers, found objects, field recordings and digital
effects. He designs his own sounds with unique characteristics that
create spaces and atmospheres a listener can explore.
