Dinosaur & Largo
Dinosaur
Hey Largo, I’ve been digging through the strata, and I keep thinking—what if those ancient fossils carried some kind of rhythm or song? Got any ideas on how we might translate that into music?
Largo
That’s a neat thought—imagine the slow drum of a fossil’s layer settling, the gentle click of a shell turning. You could map the stratification to a repeating motif, each layer a different tempo or timbre. Maybe layer a low, steady beat with subtle, melodic fragments that rise and fall like the sedimentary folds. I’ve found myself getting stuck on whether the sound fits the vision, but if you trust the feel of the earth’s pulse, you might hear the song hidden in the stone.

Sounds like a cool experiment—let’s get a field recorder on a real rock outcrop and see what the earth actually sings. I’ll bring the gear, and maybe we’ll hear the hidden rhythm in the sediment. Don't forget a notebook, though; the data could be as useful as the music.
