The Creation Of A Divinity
https://youtu.be/slxKyyuNm1k
Lately, I was inspired by composer David Bruce who talked about classical music piece endings in the one video and about the power of silence in another. This led me to a practical experiment yesterday, which contained both elements at the same time:

For us mortals, infinity is an abstract term we can not really understand. Our human subconsciousness permanently tells us that something always has to have a starting point and an end, which are the limits of its infinity. "The Creation Of A Divinity" is such a projection of a starting point.

The piece itself observes that creation from a distance, up to its culmination point where there is a brief moment of reverent silence before eternity strikes with the most powerful chord available on the instrument. That particular chord is then sustained for almost a minute to let the listener feel a glimpse of the eternity depicted.

Also, at least according to the video I watched, this might be the longest final chord ever played until now and until we would approach the end of John Cage's "Organ2/ASLSP" on September 5th, 2640.

For those who own a 7.1 surround system, an 8-channel FLAC file can be picked up here to get an impression of what it will sound like in my living room:

- Player: Current versions of Media Player Classic are able to properly play multi-channel FLAC files.

You had tried to give some philosophical touch to the music creation by very wisely connecting it to infinity, mortals. etc. It is always good to  read such stuff. 

I used to write here here that, not everyone will be blessed with the talent of making music, singing, art, painting like special abilities by God but only selected few will. So you are in that category.

Out of all social media platform I regard Steemit as the best one because here we can express, share our talent and people across the borders or from different continents would spare some time to go through it and admire it, or review, it or appreciate it and thereby getting an exposure and well deserved feedback on the creativity.

Your post is selected by Curie Curation and voting trail is a proof for it. Congratulations.

Thank you very much, Sir!

To be honest, I'm not yet very familiar with all of these "steem terms" like voting trails etc., but the whole rest of your words do mean a lot to me. I've joined Steem to get heard in order to inspire others and it's such a fine thing to hear that someone actively listened. There are not so many people who try to take a look behind the scenes and think about the deeper meaning of a piece of art --- but you, Sir, are obviously one of them and I highly appreciate that!

Kind Regards,
Woody/mC

I understand that the numbers are infinite.
It is not difficult for me to understand the concept of eternity.
#
Man in his quest has always wanted to represent the invisible and infinite spiritual, in the visible and finite material.
#
I like the sound to continue, it was stabilizing in my mind.
#
John Cage's Organ² / ASLSP (As SLow aS Possible) project is extraordinary.
All this has involved.
The construction of the instrument and the changes of tones spaced in years.
A whole purpose of life for several generations for 639 years.
#
I subscribed to your YouTube channel to be aware of your next videos, I left you a comment but with 1,609 comments
Ughf, I doubt you get mine. LOL
The good and disappointing endings are very well appreciated, but your explanation is a whole chair.
Love your coffee jar. 
The mention of Patreon and the commercial part robbed me of the magic of the end.
Thank you for your understandable and understandable information, even for those of us who know nothing about it. You promote the desire to investigate more.

thanks Curie for this good selection

Dear Mariita,

I'm happy that you're familiar with the extraordinary ASLSP project! Not many of those how I know are... Your listening to my music, in addition, makes me feel honored and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Besides that, please note that you in fact did not subscribe to *my* channel (which is https://www.youtube.com/user/WoodyofmC ), but instead to the channel of "David Bruce Composer", which is the creator of the two videos that I referenced near the end of my post...  :-)
(I just edited my original post to point that out more clearly.)

My music (the top video in my post) is indeed an improvisation, which is based on the material that I learned from his video lessons. However, it's a great thing to read that he was also able to inspire others! Hopefully, my music could achieve that, too.

Kind Regards,
Woody/mC

P.S. And yes, your comment on David's video can still be found in the newest comments. I'm pretty sure he'll get a notification via YouTube or email as well so he can respond to it. Fingers crossed! :-)

My God, how much love on your part!
Thank you for taking the time to clear up all my confusion.
# #
I want to pay more attention when translating.
My language is Spanish and I don't understand any English, so I am totally dependent on the translator.
# #
Your comment moves me infinitely because your love for humanity is manifested in times, of heartbreak.
# #
Sensitivity of the musician and much peace.
