“Global Player” is able to determine the current positions of approximately 1,000 satellites and visualize their orbital paths. The topographical profile of the region a particular satellite is flying over at the moment is analyzed and G-Player translates this data into sound. Oceans have no sound; flat topographies produce high frequencies, and mountainous regions low ones. Our plant thus becomes an LP that is played via satellite.
