The story
Inspired by NASA’s sonification of astronomical objects, I processed the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT)’s data of the Sagittarius A* Black Hole and turned it into an audio wave by adding 1200 wave functions together. The wave was sampled to create this instrument.

Immersive
Found a lot of use for this one.
Very interesting and eerie sound. Love pointing it out in my tracks and telling people what they're listening to.
I find the breathiness/white noise of the sound makes it somewhat difficult to cut through a mix. But the breath is inherent to the aesthetic so it's worth the effort.
Puts us in our place
Knowing how this was created and from what provides me quite a humble feeling when listening to it. Those bass tones had me slowly heading towards the event horizon into whatever mystery awaits.
Excellent work - Thank you.
