Notes:
On September 8, 1984, Isao Tomita presented a live, outdoor concert on the shore of the Danube River in Linz, Austria, for an audience of 80,000 people. The concert was called <a href=”http://www.isaotomita.net/concerts/universe.html”>The Mind of the Universe</a>, and through his interpretations of classical music, Mr. Tomita was attempting to describe the 15-billion-year history of the universe.
He employed 13 channels of sound, including one from a helicopter 1,500 feet above the river, multi-channels on either side of the river and on a ship that also carried the violinist, shakuhachi player and a chorus of 100 Austrian singers. Special lighting, lasers, fireworks and other visual effects enhanced the sound presentation. Tomita’s “stage”, where he controlled the sound, was a specially constructed pyramid suspended from a crane near the river.
“The Mind Of The Universe” was the first in a series of concerts called “Ars Electronica”. It was recorded live by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ORF).
