TRAVELING IN THE SONG OF TREES
All music present in this video have been composed by vegetal beings.
I am Edoardo, I am a musician and I am keen on plant life.
I’ve been living in Contrada Lusci for a year with Kika, my partner,
and a lot of friends that help us with our simple life based on self-handling.
Now we are here asking you to help us with our great project:
we want to travel to India and Nepal to produce an LP,
entirely made through musical compositions produced by the Sacred Trees we will find among the way.
Once back home, we will join these compositions in a mp3 LP
available for free download on out blog and on the website of “Sostanze Record”,an independent label.
I am Kika and I am the illustrator–painter of this team.
During this journey I will elaborate our experiences through colors
and I will reinterpret them once back home in order to create the cover of the LP.
We choose India and Nepal as starting point because there Sacred Trees worship has been kept undeterred.
From ancestral tradition Sacred Trees are considered as abode of specific deities.
We are very curious to listen to the melody of these trees and thank to this journey you could listen them.
I am Michele and I will travel with them as writer of the logbook of this exciting journey.
Trees will be the protagonist of the LP and through this instrument, “the bridge of Wheatstone”,
we can take their electrical changes that then become music through a synthesizer.
Plants electrical changes derive from many parameters, such as: exposure to light, heat, contact with people
and even our thoughts, as amply demonstrated by the experiments of Backster in the book "The Secret Life of Plants".
So the trees are the producers of this magnificent LP, and you can support this work.
As your donations will be really important for us, we decided to reward you with important gifts.
You will find all information in the specific webpage dedicated to our project on “Produzioni dal basso” webpage
and on our blog www.contradalusci.com.
We will make you part of the journey bringing you small gifts from the spice market of Varanasi,
incense from Nepal or hand-made pashminas, or even votive offerings to the Ganges.
These gifts will make you let you share in our way of life.
In fact you can stay with us and learn how to make deodorant, toothpaste and 100% natural soaps,
bread and Friselle or grow your own food through a synergic garden.
Furthermore, we are 7 km far from the Mediterranean Ionian coast, so you can swim in the beautiful sea of Salento.
The journey will start in the headwaters of the Ganges in Rishikesh,
and then descend to the Rajastán, cross the Uttar Pradesh until you get to Varanasi,
where he will climb to the North to cross the valley of Nepal and come in Kathmandu.
There we will take our flight back to Italy.
At our home you can listen to the music of the trees of Contrada Lusci
and bodily live the fantastic experience of a concert exclusively make by vegetable beings.
